| pelvic inflammatory disease |
Gynecological condition caused by an infection (usually sexually transmitted) that spreads from the vagina to the upper parts of a woman's reproductive tract in the pelvic cavity. PID can cause abscesses and constant pain almost anywhere in the genital tract. If left untreated, it can cause infertility or more frequent menstrual periods. Severe cases may even spread to the liver and kidneys, causing dangerous internal bleeding and death.
