%X In females, pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) is defined as inflammation and/or infection that affects the upper genital area, including the ovaries, uterus, and fallopian tubes. pelvic inflammatory disease can be caused by a variety of microorganisms found in sexually transmitted diseases, the most prevalent of which is Chlamydia trachomatis. We aim to review literature searching for the etiology of pelvic inflammatory disease, risk factors, diagnosis, clinical presentation, and management regarding this disease. PubMed database was used for the selection procedure of appropriate articles, and the following keywords were used in the mesh ((“Pelvic inflammatory disease” [Mesh]) (“Evaluation"[Mesh] AND/OR "Etiology"[Mesh] AND/OR "Risk factors"[Mesh] AND/OR "Diagnosis"[Mesh] AND/OR "Management"[Mesh])). Even though the pelvic inflammatory disease is relatively easy to treat, the core of the problem resides in late or misdiagnosis of the issue. Following the most recent guidelines in evaluating the patients for PID help the medical staff to provide the best management plan the patient needs and to prevent the unfortunate possible sequelae.
