Patient's question:
I had a cesarean section four years ago, and in mid-July of this year, I had an anesthesia-free micro-tube visual abortion in China. After the surgery, I have not had my period. Moreover, since late August, I have been experiencing severe lower abdominal pain, to the point where it is difficult for me to urinate and defecate. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, they ruled out surgical adhesions and confirmed no inflammation of the uterus or vagina. The doctor suspected appendicitis during a manual examination and administered azithromycin, which relieved the pain after about four days. However, in the following months, I still did not have my period. Now, I suspect that the lower abdominal pain and amenorrhea are related. Because during these months of amenorrhea, I have been experiencing lower abdominal pain for a few days each month. I don’t know what condition this could be, or what to do about the amenorrhea. In mid-October, I went abroad, and I am currently overseas.Doctor's answer:
Your condition is considered to be caused by pelvic inflammatory disease.Hello, based on your description, it is likely that your condition is caused by pelvic inflammatory disease. It is recommended to actively undergo anti-inflammatory treatment to prevent the inflammation from worsening, or even leading to pelvic adhesions that could cause infertility.
The occurrence of amenorrhea not only affects the patient's life but also leads to the development of gynecological diseases. Therefore, it is best to visit the gynecology department of a hospital for an ultrasound examination to identify the cause and receive targeted treatment. Pay attention to dietary adjustments, consuming light and easily digestible foods, and avoid spicy, stimulating, and cold foods.
