A member asked:
I was treated long term for bv with 500 mg of matronidazole(flagyl) for 3 months. if i had pid, would the medicine have gotten rid of the pid also?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Probably not: Usually pid requires more treatment than just metronidazole. If you think you have pid you should see your physician.
