Bowel movements and menstrual periods are also more painful than usual. My vaginal discharge has increased and become very thick, and my menstrual cycle is irregular. I feel very low in spirits and cannot concentrate, constantly feeling tired. What are the symptoms of pelvic inflammatory disease?Doctor's answer:
Lower abdominal pain, loss of appetite, headache, fever, and other typical symptoms of pelvic inflammatory disease.
