Can a woman with pelvic inflammatory disease get pregnant?

Patient's question:

I went to the hospital a few days ago for a thorough examination and found that I have chronic pelvic inflammatory disease. However, I don't feel anything different in my daily life, except for some extra acidity and slight bloating during my menstrual period. Now, I want to explain the physical treatment to me. I don't know if I can get pregnant after it's cured.

Doctor's answer:

It's best not to get pregnant. Currently, aside from the inflammation, you have a mild contagious condition. If you do get pregnant, some of the contagious issues may affect the child. Alternatively, during pregnancy, if symptoms worsen for various reasons and you need medication, you cannot take any drug casually. Therefore, it's best to treat it first before considering pregnancy. After the treatment is completed and medication is stopped, it's approximately three months before you can get pregnant. Additionally, for patients with pelvic inflammatory disease during treatment, dietary condition and care are also very important. Patients must digest vitamins, prevent stomach issues, and maintain a light diet to avoid unnecessary harm.
