Patient's question:
No sexual activity, rectal ultrasound showed a 3.4cm × 1.2cm liquid area behind the uterus, no abnormal blood flow signals, multiple follicular echoes in both ovaries, and uneven muscle layer echoes. This examination was performed one day after the menstrual period was clean. Could I still get pelvic inflammatory disease without sexual activity? I don't have any uncomfortable symptoms either. Could it be pelvic inflammatory disease or uterine fibroids? Digestion, there are many folds of flesh between my navel and chest. I feel a bit bloated after eating. Could it be pelvic inflammatory disease or uterine fibroids? Is it pelvic inflammatory disease?Doctor's answer:
Currently, most women can manage to avoid sexual intercourse during their menstrual period. However, due to the increasing work pressure on modern professional women, they are unable to get adequate rest during their period and must train as hard as men. Over time, this can lead to congestion in the pelvic cavity and a rise in resistance, resulting in pelvic inflammatory disease. Chronic pelvic inflammatory disease is a condition that traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) is particularly effective in treating, while Western medicine has limited options. It is recommended to use the Chinese herbal medicine Gynecological Qianjin Tablets/Capsules, which has anti-inflammatory effects and can also lower the body's immunity. Pay attention to the medication course. Generally speaking, 3-4 courses are recommended for those with more severe conditions, while 2-3 courses are sufficient for those with milder conditions, with each course lasting 14 days.
