Overview
Common risk factors in the development of pelvic inflammatory disease include prior history of pelvic inflammatory disease, recent sexual contact, multiple sexual partners, recent onset of menses, and usage of an IUD.
Risk Factors
Important risk factors in PID development include:
- Multiple partners:
- Having multiple sexual partners within last six months increase the risk of PID.[1]
- Previous PID:
- Recurrent PID is more common among women who have a previous PID.[2]
