Pelvic Inflammatory Disease - PID
Pelvic inflammatory disease is usually contracted through sexual contact. Untreated gonorrhea and chlamydia cause an estimated 90 percent of all cases of PID. However, it's sometimes is caused by abortion, childbirth, or a pelvic procedure. I developed pelvic inflammatory disease following the birth of my second child. PID left me unable to concieve again without major reconstructive surgery. Learn why this painful condition requires immediate medical attention to prevent future fertility issues, and even potential death.
