Is it pid?

Hi..I am 30 yr old virgin.Have regular 28d cycles.A few months back i had severe intermittent b/l pelvic cramps, which lasted for 3days n resolved by itself. Since then I've occasional dull pelvic ache , more on rt side.  Had 2 episodes of scant mucopurulent vaginal d/c a few months back.Also hv an increasing amt of non foul smelling mucoid vaginal d/c in the immediate postmenstrual period for the past 3 cycles or so. Still hv the pelvic ache and d/c, consulted a dr online who suspected pid, which i ws least expecting.No fever or other symptms. My concerns are
1. Can keeping the pads for prolonged duratn during periods cause pid?( since it happnd to me a fw mnths back n seems like the only probable reasn fr me)
2.What medicatn shud i tk since it shud b a nonSTD infn
3.If it is indeed pid, will the delay in trtmnt(almst 3mn frm symptm onset) affect my fertility?
Pls help..

I am really doubtful that this is PID.  I don't think wearing pads would result in that.  You could have a simple cyst causing these same symptoms which is very common.  PID can be serious and even fatal.  If you do feel you have this, you need to see your doctor for diagnosis and treatment.  But again, I do not suspect PID from what you've written.  good luck
