Patient's question:
Can a woman with pelvic inflammatory disease get pregnant? What should be done? Facing such a disease, how should it be treated better?Doctor's answer:
Pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) is highly harmful and can be classified as acute or chronic. Chronic PID is often a result of incomplete treatment of acute PID, while acute PID is mostly caused by bacterial downward transmission. If PID is not treated promptly, it can lead to female infertility. Long-term use of anti-inflammatory drugs is not advisable, as it may cause drug resistance and dysbiosis, leading to more severe inflammatory infections. It is recommended to adopt a combination of traditional Chinese and Western medicine treatment, using Chinese herbal gynecological medications, which can help reduce inflammation while also boosting the immune system. Generally, 3 to 5 treatment courses are required, with each course lasting about one month.
