How to deal with recurrent pelvic inflammatory disease?

Patient's question:

Detailed medical condition and consultation purpose: Pain during menstrual period cessation
Current general condition: Occasionally with purulent blood, dull pain, taking Guizhi Fuling capsules and Huazhen capsules orally

Doctor's answer:

The causes of pelvic inflammatory disease are often related to poor hygiene habits of patients, such as engaging in sexual activity during menstruation or within one month postpartum, or taking a bath in a basin within one month after gynecological surgery. Medical infections caused by unsterile procedures during induced abortion or miscarriage can also lead to pelvic effusion. For effusion caused by pelvic inflammation, posterior fornix aspiration is recommended to determine the nature of the fluid. If there are chronic infection foci, it may be due to inflammation of the gynecological system, such as the ovaries or fallopian tubes, or it could be caused by tuberculosis or tumors. Early treatment of pelvic inflammatory disease is crucial, as delaying it can affect fertility. For pelvic inflammatory disease, Gynecological Qianjin Tablets can be taken in conjunction with intravenous infusion treatment during menstruation. Continuous treatment for three menstrual cycles is recommended. After treatment, follow-up is important, and spicy foods should be avoided.
