Al-kuran O, Al-Mehaisen L, Alduraidi H, et al. - Researchers aimed at describing the clinical symptoms that point towards pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) as well as sought the major risk determinants for the Jordanian population, in a cross-sectional study, using their scoring system based only on clinical data and examination. They interviewed 168 consecutive adult women and analyzed their medical history and symptoms. Eight symptoms of PID were reported in the studied women; these consisted of dysmenorrhea and vaginal discharge being the commonest of all (45.2% and 44.6% respectively) along with chronic pelvic pain, pelvic heaviness, menorrhagia, dyspareunia, urinary symptoms, and smelly urine. History of 3 conditions that can be attributed to PID, that is infertility, preterm labor, and miscarriages, was also reported in these women. The risk factors of PID were identified and the PID likelihood was well predicted using the PID Scoring System. As per this score, women with higher parity, who used contraceptives and underwent any invasive medical procedure, are predicted to exhibit higher scores in the PID Symptom Score. In addition, the data suggest that in the Jordanian population, PID should not be ruled out when symptoms are compatible to this diagnosis.
