Patient's question:
A colleague is a 22-year-old married woman, also about to enter the of marriage. Recently, she said she has been feeling a heavy, somewhat painful sensation in her lower abdomen and asked me to accompany her for a gynecological examination. The result was that she suffered from pelvic inflammatory disease. Can unmarried women also get pelvic inflammatory disease?Doctor's answer:
Pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) is becoming increasingly common. As a condition that has long troubled women's health, many women have started taking medication to treat PID. However, often the medications chosen are incorrect. It is recommended to adopt a combination of traditional Chinese and Western medicine for treatment, which will not lead to drug resistance and will yield better results. The recommended medication is Qifengqian Pill (capsules), which has a significant effect on curing PID. Generally, 3–4 courses of treatment are recommended, with 2–3 courses for those with milder conditions. Each course lasts for 14 days.
