Patient's question:
From 2010, occasional left lower abdominal pain, dyspareunia (pain during intercourse). Gynecological examination revealed tenderness upon palpation, reduced menstrual flow, and dark color.Tried Chinese medicine and also received intravenous drips for anti-inflammatory treatment.
Doctor's answer:
1. Drug treatmentAntibiotics are the primary treatment for acute pelvic inflammatory disease, including various administration routes such as intravenous infusion, intramuscular injection, or oral administration. Broad-spectrum antibiotics should be used in combination with anti-anaerobic drugs, and the course of treatment should be sufficient. Additionally, traditional Chinese medicine treatment can be combined to achieve better efficacy.
2. Surgical treatment
Surgery is recommended for conditions such as tubal hydrops or tubo-ovarian cysts with masses. Small infection foci that repeatedly trigger inflammation are also suitable for surgical intervention. The principle of surgery is to achieve complete cure, avoiding the recurrence of residual lesions. Procedures such as adnexal resection or salpingectomy may be performed. For young women, ovarian function should be preserved as much as possible. Since single therapy is often ineffective for chronic pelvic inflammatory disease, a comprehensive treatment approach is preferred.
