Is chronic pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) treatment necessary before pregnancy?

Patient's question:

Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain for a while, especially after having sex with my boyfriend, when the pain becomes even more severe. Also, my period this month was delayed. After a thorough examination at the hospital, they said it's chronic pelvic inflammatory disease. But I want to have a baby, so I want to ask if I need to completely cure chronic pelvic inflammatory disease before I can get pregnant?

Doctor's answer:

It can be said with certainty that chronic pelvic inflammatory disease should be treated before pregnancy can occur, because without timely and effective treatment, even if pregnancy occurs, it may lead to miscarriage. Additionally, if left untreated, it can completely cause fallopian tube blockage, resulting in infertility. The treatment of chronic pelvic inflammatory disease should be based on a comprehensive evaluation. For example, measures such as herbal enemas, infrared therapy, and oral antibiotics. There are many treatment methods for pelvic inflammatory disease, but since the symptoms of patients differ, the diagnostic methods used also vary. Therefore, patients need to undergo timely and thorough examination and diagnosis to receive targeted treatment.
