Know the Basics

Which organ is NOT usually affected by Pelvic Inflammatory Disease (PID)?

A. Uterus
B. Fallopian tubes
C. Ovaries
D. Kidneys

Take a guess before checking the answer!

The correct answer is D. Kidneys.

Pelvic Inflammatory Disease (PID) is an infection of the female reproductive organs. It most commonly affects the uterus, fallopian tubes, and ovaries. If left untreated, it can lead to complications such as chronic pelvic pain, ectopic pregnancy, and infertility.

Although severe infections can sometimes affect other parts of the body, the kidneys are not the organs usually affected by PID. Kidney infections are a different medical condition and often have different causes and symptoms.

Knowing the basics about PID can help you recognize warning signs early and seek treatment before complications develop.
