Can pelvic inflammatory disease masses be treated with medication?

Patient's question:

Can pelvic inflammatory masses be treated with medication? No need for physical therapy

Doctor's answer:

For patients with pelvic inflammatory disease who experience severe lower abdominal pain and show significant pelvic inflammatory signs during gynecological examinations, broad-spectrum antibiotics such as penicillins and cephalosporins should be used in combination with metronidazole (Flagyl) for intravenous drip after the menstrual period. If there are pelvic masses or severe inflammation with frequent relapses, surgical treatment may be necessary. Additionally, patients must believe that they can overcome the illness. As long as symptoms are detected early and treated appropriately, the chances of alleviating the condition and achieving recovery are very high.
