What types of gynecological inflammation are there

Patient's question:

Half a year ago

Doctor's answer:

1. After childbirth or miscarriage, due to weakened immunity, pathogens can ascend through the reproductive tract, spread to the fallopian tubes and ovaries, and then affect the entire pelvic cavity, causing inflammation.
　　2. During the widespread use of intrauterine devices (IUDs), poor personal hygiene or non-sterile surgical procedures can lead to infection.
　　3. Unsterilized intrauterine procedures, such as aspiration, uterine and fallopian tube iodine oil contrast, cervical canal treatment, and obstetric surgeries with inadequate sterilization, can cause infection.
　　4. Neglecting menstrual hygiene, such as sexual intercourse during menstruation or with unclean partners.
　　5. When infections in other parts of the body are not treated promptly, pathogens can spread through the bloodstream to cause tubo-ovarian inflammation, commonly seen in tuberculosis.
　　6. Inflammation in nearby pelvic or fallopian tube organs, such as appendicitis, can directly spread to cause tubo-ovarian inflammation and pelvic peritonitis, typically affecting the adjacent fallopian tube and ovary.
　　7. Sexually transmitted diseases, such as gonorrhea, can lead to tubo-ovarian inflammation after infection, as the gonococcal bacteria can ascend along the mucous membranes.
