Chronic tubulitis is a pathological type of chronic pelvic inflammatory disease. The clinical diagnostic symptoms of chronic tubulitis include lower abdominal pain and lower back soreness, with pain relief during sexual intercourse, fatigue, or before and after menstruation. Additionally, it can easily lead to infertility or ectopic pregnancy, during which menstrual bleeding may persistently increase or menstrual irregularities may occur.
