I think you probably mean PID, which is pelvic inflammatory disease. It's a general term that refers to infection of the uterus, fallopian tubes, and other reproductive organs. There are some infections that, if untreated, can lead to PID.

hi! i looked back at your previous post and it was bv(a baterical infection) than you might could have and it can lead to PID(pelvic inflamation disease) if it is not treated. the above post of hpv was not mentioned  or thought that you might have from your other question you posted. i would google bv and then PID b/c it is a very dangerous thing(the PID not the bv, the bv can be treated with antiobitics). did you call your obgyn?
