Pelvic Inflammatory Disease (PID)
PID is a collective term for inflammation or infections of the Fallopian tubes, ovaries, cervix, or uterus. It can be caused by an intrauterine device (IUD), endometriosis, pelvic surgery, sexually transmitted diseases, or if an infection develops after an abortion. It may be acute or chronic. Symptoms can include sharp abdominal pain, backache, high fever (acute); abdominal pain and tenderness, tiredness, vaginal discharge, general feeling of unwellness (chronic).

Uterine Prolapse
A prolapse is the falling or sagging of the uterus due to slack muscle tone. The pelvic organs are supported hy a sling of muscles and ligaments, and if strain is put on these muscles during pregnancy, or because of obesity, or because the muscles have lost their elasticity due to the menopause, the pelvic organs start to sag. Symptoms of this condition are a dragging sensation, or heaviness in the back or lower abdomen, incontinence, a frequent desire to urinate even when the bladder is empty, constipation, and a feeling of looseness in the pelvis.
