What is the reason for abdominal pain after menstruation?

Patient's question:

Duration of onset and persistence: Two years
Medical history: None

Doctor's answer:

Hello, pelvic inflammatory disease is often caused by poor personal hygiene during sexual activity. It can lead to lower abdominal pain and swelling, increased menstrual flow, and increased vaginal discharge. It may also cause fallopian tube blockage, uterine adhesions, and affect ovulation and pregnancy.
After being diagnosed with pelvic inflammatory disease, it is recommended not to take anti-inflammatory drugs for a long time, as this can lead to drug resistance and dysbiosis, resulting in more severe infections. It is advisable to combine traditional Chinese and Western medicine treatments, which do not cause drug resistance and are more effective. Recommended traditional Chinese medicine includes Qifeng Qianjin Tablets/Capsules. Generally, 3-4 treatment courses are needed, with 2-3 courses for milder cases. Each course lasts 14 days, improving tissue nutrition and metabolism.
To prevent reinfection or mixed infections, it is essential for the male partner to maintain good sexual hygiene.
