How to deal with chronic pelvic inflammatory disease that doesn't get better with treatment?

Patient's question:

My female friend has been experiencing extremely late menstrual cycles for the past few months, and the menstrual pain has been particularly severe. Most importantly, even without her period, she has been experiencing significant pain in her lower abdomen. After a thorough examination at the hospital, it was discovered that she has chronic pelvic inflammatory disease (PID). Despite treatment for a long time, there has been no improvement. Now, I want to know what to do about chronic pelvic inflammatory disease that doesn't respond to treatment.

Doctor's answer:

Chronic pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) is a gynecological condition characterized by a prolonged course, a tendency to recur, and difficulty in complete spontaneous recovery. Treating chronic pelvic inflammatory disease requires a comprehensive evaluation and long-term treatment approach. If chronic pelvic inflammatory disease leads to pelvic masses, surgical treatment is generally necessary. For simple connective tissue inflammation, a combination of physical therapy, medication, and lifestyle interventions is required. For patients, if the pelvic inflammatory disease is severe, immediate symptomatic treatment and appropriate medication should be administered, otherwise it may lead to a recurrence of pelvic inflammatory disease. Additionally, patients should maintain a proper diet and stay in a positive mood. I hope the answers above can help everyone. Thank you.
