Can a woman with pelvic inflammatory disease have an induced abortion?

Patient's question:

The first time was in November 2010, the second time was in April 2011, and the third time was in July 2011. Now it's 2012 and I'm pregnant. I previously developed pelvic inflammatory disease after the third miscarriage. I want to ask if it's possible to have a miscarriage now. Will it cause infertility in the future? I currently only have pelvic inflammatory disease.

Doctor's answer:

The risk of pelvic infection itself is enhanced by the procedure. Recommendations: As long as it is not during an acute inflammatory phase and other contraindications are excluded, the procedure can be performed. However, with repeated procedures like yours, there are several risks: first, it increases the likelihood of pelvic infection and may exacerbate existing pelvic inflammation; second, it can cause certain damage to the uterus, which may affect future fertility. In addition to medication for treating pelvic inflammation, patients should also pay attention to dietary aspects, such as maintaining a light diet and engaging in regular outdoor activities. Meanwhile, it is important to choose a top-tier hospital for treatment to ensure better outcomes.
