A member asked:
Can a person with ulcerative collitis develop pelvic inflamation diseases? what are its symptoms?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes, different organ: Ulcerative colitis effects the colon and rectum. Pelvic inflammatory disease (pid) effects the uterus and fallopian tubes. These organs are next to each other so symptoms can be similar. Also, the immune system suppressing medications that help control ulcerative colitis can make it easier to have other infections, such as pid.
