Patient's question:
Patient Age: I went to see the doctor, and they said I have pelvic inflammatory disease. What kind of help do you need: I want to know if I have pelvic inflammatory disease now.Doctor's answer:
Hello: Pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) refers to the inflammation of the female internal reproductive organs and their surrounding tissues, including the pelvic peritoneum. It primarily includes endometritis, tubo-ovarian abscess, pelvic peritonitis, and connective tissue.Symptoms:
1. Fever (severe cases).
2. Scarring and adhesions caused by chronic inflammation, as well as pelvic congestion, often lead to lower abdominal heaviness, pain, and lower back/ischialgia. Symptoms tend to worsen after physical exertion, sexual intercourse, or around the menstrual cycle.
3. Chronic inflammation causes pelvic congestion, resulting in excessively heavy menstrual flow in patients. Damage to ovarian function may lead to menstrual disorders, while tubal adhesions and blockages may cause infertility.
