Hi Anon,
Welcome to EmpowHER.
If you are diagnosed with milder PID, you will usually be given an antibiotic injection or shot, and then sent home with antibiotic pills to take for up to 2 weeks. You will need to closely follow up with your health care provider.
More severe cases of PID may require you to stay in the hospital. Antibiotics are first given by IV, and then later by mouth. Which antibiotic is used depends on the type of infection. Complicated cases that do not improve with antibiotics may need surgery. It's important to get a second opinion from a another doctor. If you feel your present Dr. is not doing anything and your pain continues.
