A member asked:

Is it possible for a woman to concieve if she has pid?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes, but...: It is extremely unlikely. However, active PID is not birth control! you may mean can she conceive if she has had pid. The answer to this is yes, but PID does affect fertility and can, if bad enough, render a woman sterile.
