It is treatable but depending on how many episodes (they can be mild) or acute each episode of PID causes further damage to a womans fertility . It can be caused by STI but there are MANY other differnt reasons it can be caused by such as miscarriage or abortion , surgery , IUD ect . It can cause long term pelvic pain and is one of the main reasons for infertility and eptopic pregnancy . The actual PID is treatable so you ar not suffering long term or youd just die ...it can cause death if not treated as soon as possible as it is a very serious illness . Most STI are treatable with antibiotics . Unless you have herpes ...which will just return but perhaps not as painful as the first time - ive never had herpes and of course Hiv and Aids niether of which i have . So just to clear this up i do not have sti OR PID and im well and one of the very lucky ladies to be still having regular periods adn no long term after effects of PID such as pelvic pain ect ..
