Can a woman with pelvic inflammatory disease get pregnant?

Patient's question:

I used to have pelvic inflammatory disease, but I recovered after treatment. However, recently, due to neglect in diet and daily routines, my pelvic inflammatory disease has recurred. But my husband and I have always wanted to have a baby. Can I get pregnant with pelvic inflammatory disease?

Doctor's answer:

Chronic pelvic inflammatory disease often manifests as bilateral tubal inflammation. Over time, the openings of the fallopian tubes, especially the distal end where the egg is grasped (known as the fimbriae), may partially or completely become sealed. It can also cause the inner lining of the fallopian tubes to adhere due to inflammation, narrowing or sealing the lumen. This disrupts the passage of eggs, sperm, or fertilized eggs, leading to infertility. It is recommended that you seek medical attention immediately, get treated first, and then consider pregnancy, which is beneficial for both the baby and your own body.
In addition to timely treatment for pelvic inflammatory disease, patients also need to pay attention to their diet, such as eating a balanced diet and maintaining a positive mood. At the same time, patients should also be careful to choose a reputable hospital for treatment, so that they can achieve good therapeutic effects.
