Patient's question:
Hello, I haven't been feeling well recently. I'd like to consult about this disease. How does pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) occur, and is it serious?Doctor's answer:
Pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) is highly dangerous and can be classified as acute or chronic. Chronic PID is often a result of incomplete treatment of acute PID, while acute PID is primarily caused by bacterial downward transmission. If PID is not treated promptly, it can lead to female infertility. Long-term use of anti-inflammatory drugs is not advisable, as it can cause drug resistance and dysbiosis, leading to more severe inflammatory infections. It is recommended to adopt a combination of traditional Chinese and Western medicine treatments, using traditional Chinese medicine products like Gynecological Qianjin Tablets (capsules), which can reduce inflammation while also lowering the body's immune response. Generally, 3 to 5 treatment courses are required, with each course lasting about one month.
