Patient's question:
Still haven't gotten pregnant after some time, the hospital check-up said it's due to gynecological inflammation.Doctor's answer:
Analysis of the Condition:Reasons for Susceptibility to Gynecological Infections:
1. The female reproductive organs, pelvic cavity, and external environment are interconnected, allowing bacteria to enter the uterus through the vagina.
2. The skin of the external genitalia is very delicate, with abundant sweat glands, numerous folds, and a hidden, poorly ventilated area, making it highly susceptible to bacterial attacks.
3. Under normal conditions, the vagina contains a large number of lactobacilli, which decompose glycogen to produce lactic acid, creating an acidic environment that is unfavorable for harmful bacteria. However, when local resistance declines, some bacteria and pathogens can take advantage of the situation.
4. Due to menstruation, pregnancy, or other reasons, the cervix is long exposed to irritating secretions, leading to epithelial shedding and making the cervical mucosal folds and glands prone to harboring various pathogens.
5. The vaginal opening is close to the urethral and anal openings, making it easily contaminated by urine and feces, which can foster bacterial growth.
6. Sexual intercourse during menstruation dilutes the acidic environment of the female uterus, weakening its self-cleaning ability. During this time, sexual activity can introduce external bacteria, leading to infections of the endometrium and gynecological inflammation.
Guidelines:
For gynecological infections, a light diet is recommended. Avoid consuming irritant foods such as mutton, shrimp, crabs, eel, salted fish, and black fish, as well as spicy foods like chili peppers, Sichuan peppercorns, raw onions, raw garlic, and alcohol. Instead, focus on eating more vegetables and fruits, such as lean meat, chicken, eggs, winter melon, mushrooms, tofu, kelp, nori, quail eggs, crucian carp, celery, spinach, cucumbers, softshell turtle, white fish, cabbage, and asparagus.
