Overview
Natural history
If left untreated it may lead to infertility in approximately 16% of affected women.[1] it may progress to adjacent organ involvement or even peritonitis.
Prognosis
The overall prognosis of PID is good if patients treated within 3 days of symptoms onset but the clinical improvement can not guaranty protection against infertility.[2]
Factors that predict poor prognosis include:[3]
- Advanced age,
- History of previous open gynecological surgery,
- Any cystic lesion identified by ultrasonography,
- High CRP levels
Complications
