A member asked:
I have an iud paragard. how likely am i to develop pid? and what are the symptoms that i should look out for? sometimes my lower stomach hurts.

Depends: The risk for PID with an IUD in place comes from having multiple sexual partners. If you are in a monogamous relationship and have no history of STDs then it is unlikely you will develop PID.
