The pain in my pelvic area comes and goes. could it still be pid or still serious?


the other day i asked if i could possibly have pid because i had been having bad pains in my pelvic area. the pain has been gone since last night but i know it's going to come back. even though it comes and goes could it still be serious? could i have ovarian cancer? im only 16.

Stop this right NOW! Your 16-yrs old, if there is no family history in the women of your group - you are at no risk. If you are still a virgin, I still suggest that you have a "pap" test. All will be revealed at the conclusion of that test when your doctor receives the results. Having some discomfort in the "pelvic" area is NOT uncommon at your age, you are still growing, many things affect this area. Strenuous exercise, sport, stress, DNA history, so Slow down, enjoy being 16 - it goes by in a New York Heartbeat!

PID is normally transmitted through sex, so if you haven't had sex, it probably is not PID. Check this link out for symptoms:

At this age, it's very doubtful you have ovarian cancer. There are quite a few conditions than can cause pelvic pain, so it's important not to try to self-diagnose. If your pain persist, I would get into an emergency room, especially if you are running a fever too. Please try not to worry, but I would try to get in and see a doctor as soon as you can, especially if your pain is very bad.
