The emergence of pelvic inflammatory disease has caused great concern to many female friends, and its harm is also very serious. Especially for women preparing to conceive, more attention should be paid to active and reasonable treatment.
Can pelvic inflammatory disease lead to infertility?
Pelvic inflammatory disease may cause blockage or occlusion of the patient's fallopian tubes, affecting the fertilization effect and leading to infertility.
At present, the possibility of pelvic inflammatory disease leading to blocked fallopian tubes is increasing. Endometrial inflammation caused by pelvic inflammatory disease can also spread upwards, leading to the occurrence of endometritis in the fallopian tubes, leading to interstitial congestion, edema, white blood cell immersion, and in severe cases, blockage or degenerative deformation of the fallopian tubes. In addition, pelvic inflammation alters the acid-base environment in the vagina, dilutes semen, weakens sperm permeability and vitality, and causes infertility.
Pelvic inflammatory hazards
1. Infertility: Tubal adhesions and blockages can cause infertility.
2. Ectopic pregnancy: The incidence of ectopic pregnancy after pelvic inflammatory disease is 8-10 times higher than that of normal women.
3. Chronic pelvic pain: Inflammatory adhesions, scars, and pelvic floor congestion often cause lower abdominal distension, pain, and lumbosacral pain, which worsens after fatigue, sexual intercourse, and before and after menstruation.
4. Recurrent attacks of pelvic inflammatory disease: The structural destruction of the fallopian tube tissue caused by pelvic inflammatory disease, local defense function decline, and patients still at the same high risk factor can be re infected to cause recurrent attacks of pelvic inflammatory disease. About 25% of patients with a history of pelvic inflammatory disease have relapsed.
Treatment of pelvic inflammatory disease
1. Psychological therapy: General treatment relieves patients' mental worries, enhances treatment confidence, increases nutrition, exercises the body, pays attention to the combination of work and rest, and improves the body's resistance.
2. Physical therapy: Warm and benign stimulation can promote local blood circulation in the pelvic cavity. Improving the nutritional status of tissues, enhancing metabolism, and promoting anti-inflammatory effects. Commonly used are short wave, ultrashort wave, ion penetration (various drugs such as penicillin and streptomycin can be added), wax therapy, etc.
3. Other drug treatments: The female reproductive system has a natural defense function, which can prevent bacterial invasion under normal circumstances. Only when the body's resistance decreases or other reasons disrupt the female's natural defense function, can pelvic inflammatory disease be caused. Therefore, daily care should also be taken in private areas. When cleaning the external genitalia every day, it is best to choose a female care solution with a Ph4 weak acid prescription. As for washing the vagina, it should be done about once a week to avoid bacterial infections caused by dysbiosis
