Patient's question:
My leukorrhea is abnormal. I've had lower abdominal bloating and pain for over a month. I went to the gynecology department of the hospital, and the doctor scheduled a gynecological color Doppler ultrasound, which revealed pelvic inflammatory disease. The doctor prescribed many medications. After taking them, I felt the lower abdominal pain subsiding. A follow-up examination considered the pelvic inflammatory disease to be improving. Can I have sexual intercourse while taking medication for pelvic inflammatory disease?Doctor's answer:
Pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) cannot engage in sexual activity during medication treatment. Currently, after a thorough examination at the hospital, PID has been diagnosed, along with abnormal vaginal discharge and lower abdominal pain symptoms. During the medication treatment for PID, sexual activity should be avoided, as it may affect the treatment effectiveness and could potentially worsen the condition. When taking medication, it is important to follow the prescribed course and pay attention to rest, avoiding overexertion.The daily treatment for PID patients primarily involves medication. Patients can use a variety of oral medications.
