Patient's question:
35 years old, recently experiencing symptoms of irregular menstruation and increased vaginal discharge. I went to the village clinic for consultation, and the doctor said it might be possible that I have pelvic inflammatory disease. He advised me to go to a big hospital for examination and take medication for treatment. I would like to ask, what health checks can detect whether I have pelvic inflammatory disease? What are the causes of pelvic inflammatory disease?Doctor's answer:
A gynecological health check includes tests for pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), and the price is affordable. The causes of PID are as follows: postpartum physical weakness, an improperly sealed cervix, and residual tissues; poor hygiene during menstruation, such as using unclean menstrual pads or having sexual intercourse during menstruation, can allow pathogens to invade and lead to infection, ultimately causing PID. Additionally, during the treatment of PID, besides timely medical treatment, the patient's dietary condition and psychological state are also crucial. The patient must maintain a light diet and always keep a cheerful and optimistic mindset to avoid unnecessary interference in the complete recovery from PID.
