Patient's question:
Pelvic inflammatory disease is a serious illness? What happens if it's not treated? Will it cause interference in the future?Doctor's answer:
Pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) is one of the common gynecological diseases, divided into chronic and acute types. If acute PID is treated promptly, thoroughly, and effectively, it is often curable. If treatment is delayed, it can become chronic, and this type of PID often leads to infertility in women. However, the condition can be stubborn, and during times when the body's resistance is low, acute recurrence may occur. Since PID often interferes with quality of life and sexual life due to prolonged duration, it can also lead to infertility and tumors. Incomplete treatment is also highly prone to recurring repeatedly. Therefore, treatment for this disease must be thorough. It is recommended to adopt a combination of traditional Chinese and Western medicine for treatment, which will not cause drug resistance and yields better results.
