I had my daughter 4 months ago. When I first got pregnant during my pap I have abnormal cells. Since She’s been born my symptoms are pelvic pain, rectal pain, lower back pain, leg pain (which now goes to my knee, before just the thigh) clear discharge that’s foul, pain during sex and after, fatigue, heavy periods. I believe I can feel the “abnormal cell” on my cervix which seems to be larger now. I’ve also had hpv for years.

Hello. Thank you for posting.

Pelvic inflammatory disease, or PID, is an infection of the organs of a women’s reproductive system. They include the uterus, ovaries, fallopian tubes, and cervix. It’s usually caused by a sexually transmitted infection (STI), like chlamydia or gonorrhea, and is treated with antibiotics.
