What are the treatment options for pelvic inflammatory disease?

Patient's question:

Female, 40 years old, experiencing lower abdominal pain, discomfort in the waist, and a cool feeling in the lower abdomen. She has been treated for symptoms of pelvic inflammatory disease for two months but has not seen improvement. She wants to ask, what are the treatment methods for pelvic inflammatory disease?

Doctor's answer:

Pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) refers to the inflammation of the upper female reproductive tract and its surrounding structures, primarily including endometritis, fallopian tubes, tubo-ovarian abscess, and pelvic peritonitis. The treatment of PID can be implemented through a combination of traditional Chinese and Western medicine methods. Based on the patient's symptoms, treatments such as clearing heat and detoxifying, promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis are used in conjunction with highly effective Western medications. Treatment must be patient and cannot be discontinued once symptoms disappear, as this can easily lead to relapse or even the recurrence of chronic pelvic inflammatory disease. Therefore, treatment must be thorough. In addition to active treatment, gynecological patients also need to pay attention to maintaining healthy dietary habits in daily life to digest and absorb nutrients. I hope the above answer can assist you. Thank you.
