Delay in seeking medical care for pelvic inflammatory disease (pid) increases the risk of permanent damage and scarring that can lead to infertility and ectopic pregnancy.
In pelvic inflammatory disease, there is a infection in uterus or fallopian tubes or other reproductive organs, and these are important for a woman to get pregnant. Ectopic pregnancy is a pregnancy which occurs outside the uterus, mostly it happens in fallopian tubes.
