Patient's question:
What are the causes of pelvic inflammatory disease? What are the causes of pelvic inflammatory disease in women?Doctor's answer:
Neglecting hygiene during menstruation: During menstruation, the endometrium sheds, blood sinuses in the uterine cavity open, and blood clots are present, creating a favorable environment for bacterial growth. If hygiene is not paid attention to during this period, using sanitary pads or toilet paper that do not meet hygiene standards, or engaging in sexual activity, can provide bacteria with the opportunity for retrograde infection, leading to pelvic inflammatory disease. The occurrence of gynecological inflammation not only affects the patient's health but also leads to the development of gynecological diseases. Therefore, it is best to visit the gynecology department of a hospital for a vaginal examination, identify the cause, and receive symptomatic treatment. In daily life, attention should be paid to dietary regulation, consuming light and easily digestible foods, and avoiding spicy, irritating, and cold foods.
