A member asked:
Can you get pelvic inflammatory disease without being sexually active? like from uti's or yeast infections or bad hygeine?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: The short answer is yes. You can get PID just like you can develop a UTI..and the same bacteria can be involved actually. Good hygiene is important. Remember to wipe from front to back and not the other way around.
