How does pelvic inflammatory disease occur

Patient's question:

I recently noticed an increase in leukorrhea with a yellowish color, and in addition to the symptom of abdominal pain, I went to the hospital for a thorough examination. The doctor said it was pelvic inflammatory disease. I would like to ask how pelvic inflammatory disease is usually caused?

Doctor's answer:

There are still many reasons that can lead to pelvic inflammatory disease, such as infections after miscarriage or postpartum, infections during uterine cavity surgery, menstrual hygiene issues, or inflammation of adjacent organs. However, if pelvic inflammatory disease occurs, it is still necessary to take it seriously. One should actively go to the hospital to identify the cause and then determine targeted treatment. But it is essential to pay close attention to hygiene and change underwear frequently.
