A member asked:
Acute pid converts into chronic pid?or are developments different?i had gonorrhea&still have sympt of chronic pid.gyn said i don't have it though.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No chronic PID: Pelvic inflammatory disease is an acute infection. It does not really become chronic. If it is not treated with appropriate antibiotics then the condition worsens requiring hospitalization and may even result in death. However, PID can cause scarring that can result in chronic pelvic pain and discomfort.
