I have chronic yeast infection, my doctor and some websites on internet say that untreated yeast infection does not cause pid. But some other doctors I found, on Lybrate and other places say yeast infection can cause pid. What is true? It's been years for me with yeast infection but I have no pid symptoms. I never douche and I am virgin. Am I safe?
