Patient's question:
I am 26 years old, female. Last year, I was thoroughly examined and found to have pelvic inflammatory disease. After that, I took medication for treatment, but I still feel it hasn't improved. Now, I still have a lot of leukorrhea and often have lower back pain. I would like to ask if pelvic inflammatory disease with severe lower back pain can affect pregnancy?Doctor's answer:
If it is just mild pelvic inflammatory disease, it will not interfere with pregnancy, but if it is severe, it may also cause infertility. It is recommended to actively treat the disease and remember to avoid spicy foods and sexual intercourse during treatment to prevent worsening the condition. If symptoms do not improve, intravenous fluids should be administered and the condition should be closely monitored. Patients should develop a regular lifestyle, persist in treatment, maintain a light diet, and engage in aerobic exercise to boost their immunity and reduce the risk of illness.
