Hi to all !!! ...i would be so grateful if anyone could give me any advice . I am 39, single without children (hoping i still can have them but have not tried to yet).

Dec/Jan 2007 (approx 4 days in all) i was hospitalized for PID which was caused by STI Chlamydia. I did test at my GU clinic at the hospital when the symptoms of the STI began unfortunately, they missed it...my symptoms continued and as a result i had to go through some awful experiences ...CT scan, MRI, renal tract ultrasound, 2 cystoscopies, a full colonoscopies, many visits to A and E department ect ...it was only when i had developed PID and ovarian cyst went to A and E and they diagnosed PID and found the chlamydia. I was given metronidazole and Ofloxacin (had to do quite a few courses plus two weeks of doxycycline). Qite an awful experience as you can imagine and upsetting that it was missed by the clinic. I have been offered counselling and the dr at the hospital did apologise. I am lucky i still have my periods (very lucky) and they are regular every 28 days and i can time them bizarre as it sounds to 10.30 in the evening.

I did not have a laporoscopy as it wasnt needed. The consultant gyne man said it was a fluke i got overian cyst at the same time as PID bbut i had been having them for a long time and i just didnt know and that it was something to do with releasing a burst of eggs or going through a spate of doing that (whatever that means) he just said it made the PID pain worse and it was unfortunate it happened at the same time.

I do count myself lucky that im fortunate enough to still be having periods or functioning "normally" down there so to speak (i had a trans vaginal scan and they said there was plenty of healthy eggs. Of course im aware that there could be problems with fertility/trying for a baby just to add i dont take contraceptive pill nor have i done before (i use condoms). My question is regarding sex or having sex again ...i have some anxiety !! on my hospital discharge sheet as well as the PID ect it says i have "generalized anxiety State" that was because it took them so long to find out and having to go through some awful medical tests because of the error they made at the GU department. Its been over two years since i have had intercourse (and i had some fear about being able to ..expecting pain...please could anyone give me advice ...i had protected sex (condom) on Friday 21st March my period is due on 1st April normally for about 7 to 10 days bfore a period i get very shart pains now and again (they come and go) i understand im ovulating i also get them for a week or so after my period (the dr told me you are still ovulating|??? not sure on that or if you can but thats what he said. My worry is since i have had protected sex for the first time (i didnt have intercourse for a year after the PID to give it chance to heal) the next morning after having sex and sort of all the way through the week i have a pain like a period pain or overy pain . I didnt bleed after sex and to my amazment i had pain free sex no bleeding afterwards although i was very nervous. Im frightened the action of having sex could have agrivated something or could it start PID off ??? or is it just bruising my partners body weight im five ft five and hes 6 ft 4 and quite a large general body build . Im so nervous about beginning sex again. has anyone who has experienced PID recovered got any advice or do you thing its just ovulation? is it possible having sex could cause some damage? . i did ask him to stop as i was feeling quite anxious . but no pain no bleeding afterwards no other problems after it ...just pain since saturday (or the day after sex and today) is it just ovulation ?
Thank you so much ...for reading and any comment would be greatly apprieciated ....
