Patient's question:
Today, because my period was delayed by five or six days, I went to the gynecology department for a check-up. Then, the doctor found these issues and said I have pelvic inflammatory disease, cervical inflammation, and bacterial vaginosis. They need to draw off fluid, give me intravenous fluids, and prescribe traditional Chinese medicine. I want to know what these test results actually mean and what I should do. Are there relatively cost-effective and high-quality treatment options?Doctor's answer:
Normally, during the menstrual cycle, a small amount of fluid accumulation can occur during ovulation, generally not exceeding two centimeters. If there is no abdominal pain or dragging sensation, it is considered physiological. You can wait and see for now without medication.The current examination results show poor vaginal cleanliness, which is mostly related to poor hygiene or poor vaginal self-cleaning ability. You can start with a sit bath. If there is a lot of leukorrhea, you can use vaginal tablets for treatment. Wear cotton-lined, loose, and breathable underwear, and avoid tight pants.
There are many treatment methods for cervical inflammation, but since the patient's condition varies, the diagnostic approach also differs. Therefore, it is recommended that patients seek diagnosis and treatment as soon as they notice symptoms.
