Patient's question:
A while ago, I felt discomfort in my lower abdomen and went to the hospital for a thorough examination. I was diagnosed with chronic pelvic inflammatory disease and have been undergoing treatment. I am also taking medication, but this month during my period when I had my menstruation, I suddenly noticed that the blood was very dark. I don't know what caused this. Hello, is dark menstruation related to chronic pelvic inflammatory disease?Doctor's answer:
Generally, dark menstrual color is not closely related to pelvic inflammatory disease. It is likely caused by catching a cold or poor rest. Avoid extremely cold foods in the coming days, but pay more attention to preventing colds and observe if there is any menstrual cramps. Pay attention to hygiene during this period. After the menstrual period, it is recommended to take antibiotics or decide on a physical treatment method to help pelvic inflammatory disease recover completely. Avoid staying up late. Regulate physical and mental health, maintain personal hygiene, and avoid bacterial invasion due to weakened immunity.
