What are the signs and symptoms of pelvic inflammatory disease?

How to diagnose pelvic inflammatory disease
If you think that you may have pelvic inflammatory disease, see a doctor right away. If you have pain in your lower abdomen (stomach area), your doctor will perform a physical exam. This will include a pelvic (internal) exam. Your doctor will check for:
- Abnormal discharge from your vagina or cervix
- Lumps called abscesses near your ovaries and tubes
- Tenderness or pain in your pelvic organs
Your doctor will also test you for STIs, including HIV and syphilis (SI-fuh-luhs), urinary tract infection, and if needed, pregnancy. If needed, your doctor may do other tests.
- Ultrasound (sonogram) — a test that uses sound waves to take pictures of the pelvic area.
- Endometrial (en-duh-MEE-tree-uhl) (uterine) biopsy — the doctor removes and tests a small piece of the endometrium (the inside lining of the womb).
- Laparoscopy (lap-uh-RAHS-kuh-pee) — the doctor inserts a small, lighted tube through your abdomen (stomach area) to look at your pelvic organs.
These tests will help your doctor find out if you have pelvic inflammatory disease, or if you have a different problem that looks like pelvic inflammatory disease.
