Pelvic Inflammatory Disease (PID)
Pelvic Inflammatory Disease (PID) ( 15 Questions)
Which statement by one of the attendees indicates a need for further teaching?
This statement is correct. PID can indeed lead to infertility if left untreated. PID can cause scarring and damage to the fallopian tubes, which can result in infertility.
This statement is also correct. Having multiple sexual partners is a risk factor for PID. It increases the likelihood of exposure to different bacterial infections that can lead to PID.
This statement is correct as well. Using protection during sex, such as condoms, can prevent PID to some extent by reducing the risk of sexually transmitted infections (STIs), which are a common cause of PID.
This statement is the one that indicates a need for further teaching. PID is not mainly caused by urinary tract infections. It is primarily caused by the ascending spread of bacteria from the lower genital tract to the upper reproductive organs, such as the uterus, fallopian tubes, and ovaries. Urinary tract infections and PID are distinct conditions with different causes and manifestations.
