The course differs for different people. If a woman has chlamydia when the IUD is inserted, the risk of PID is quite high. It appears that with the IUDs currently on the market in the US, the course is about the same as for women without IUDs. However, most women should avoid IUDs unless they're in a committed relationship, and should make sure she and her partner are tested before exchanging potentially infectious fluids.
