Patient's question:
On August 2nd, I had laparoscopic surgery for ectopic pregnancy and pelvic inflammatory disease. I got pregnant with an IUD in place. I have chronic pelvic inflammatory disease, and I still want to have a baby. Will the pelvic inflammatory disease affect it? How can it be completely cured?Doctor's answer:
Pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) patients with severe lower abdominal pain and significant pelvic inflammatory findings during gynecological examinations may be treated with broad-spectrum antibiotics such as penicillins and cephalosporins, combined with metronidazole, administered intravenously after menstruation. If pelvic masses are present or the inflammation is severe and recurrent, surgical treatment may be appropriate. Additionally, physical therapies such as shortwave, ultrashortwave, infrared, and drug iontophoresis can enhance pelvic blood circulation, aid in the absorption of inflammation, and may be used as needed. Chinese herbal medicines that promote blood circulation and clear heat-toxin can also be considered. Beyond symptomatic treatment, PID patients should maintain a proper dietary habit consistently in their daily lives!
