Epidemiology
It is difficult to have an accurate estimate of PID incidence and prevalence because most of this patients are sub-clinical.[1]
Incidence
- It is estimated that 750.000-1.2 million women are affected by PID each year in the United States,.[2][3]
- Incidence and prevalence are decreasing since 1985 because of widespread chlamydia screening and treatment.[4]
- PID is the most common gynecologic reason for hospital admission in the United States, accounting for 18 per 10,000 recorded hospital discharges.[5][6]
- Approximately 50,000 women become infertile in the US each year from PID.
- N. gonorrhoea is isolated in only 40-60% of women with acute salpingitis [7] . C. trachomatis was estimated to be the cause in about 60% of cases of salpingitis, which may lead to PID.
