Patient's question:
I have been experiencing frequent abdominal pain recently. I went to the doctor for a thorough examination, and the doctor told me it was caused by pelvic inflammatory disease. Currently, I am undergoing medication treatment. However, my husband is about to return home, and I am afraid he might have sexual intercourse with me. What should I pay attention to when a pelvic inflammatory disease patient has sexual intercourse?Doctor's answer:
Pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) is a relatively common gynecological condition. If PID reoccurs, Fule Chongji can be used. The recurrence of PID is primarily related to inadequate menstrual hygiene. During sexual activity, PID patients should be gentle and avoid excessive intensity, focusing on gentleness and maintaining good personal hygiene. They should also take baths, change clothes frequently to protect themselves, and pay attention to their diet, ensuring it is light and avoiding overly greasy foods. In addition to timely treatment, PID patients need to maintain a positive mood in daily life, as a good mood greatly assists in the recovery of the disease.
