As a couple, you have been trying to get pregnant for a few years, but there appears to be a medical cause for the infertility. After a full checkup, your doctor tells you that there is scar tissue in the uterine tubes. What disease is the most likely cause of this problem?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Gonorrhea is a sexually transmitted infection known to cause pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) if left untreated, which can lead to the formation of scar tissue in the uterine tubes (fallopian tubes). This scarring can block the tubes, preventing sperm from reaching an egg, which can cause infertility.
