What is the reason for lower abdominal pain and vaginal bleeding outside of menstruation?

Patient's question:

I finished my period about a week ago, and it's no longer my period. I haven't had any sexual activity either, but I've been experiencing severe pain in my lower abdomen. Besides making me feel upset, there's also been bleeding from below the vagina. This is the first time this has happened to me. What could be causing this? How can it be treated?

Doctor's answer:

Abdominal pain accompanied by bleeding is a relatively common cause of gynecological inflammation, such as adnexitis, pelvic inflammatory disease, or vaginitis, etc. It is recommended that you have an abdominal and pelvic ultrasound examination to see if it is normal. After a clear diagnosis, take two types of oral antibiotics under the guidance of a doctor for anti-inflammatory treatment. During this period, avoid extremely cold, spicy, and overly stimulating foods, and focus on easily digestible soft foods while drinking plenty of warm water. For severe gynecological disease patients, it is advised to seek medical attention promptly and follow the doctor's advice for timely treatment. Do not switch to new medications at will, as this may have the opposite effect. The above suggestions are for reference only. It is hoped that the above answer can help you. Thank you.
