"Have I ever had three lower abdominal surgeries, appendicitis, cesarean section, and ectopic pregnancy. Can pelvic inflammatory disease be cured?"

Doctor's answer:

Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) believes that this condition often occurs during periods of emptiness in the uterine vessels, such as after menstruation or childbirth, when pathogenic heat invades the uterus and combines with blood, obstructing the uterine vessels. This leads to poor circulation of qi and blood in the uterine vessels, causing stagnation in the lower jiao, which then transforms into heat. Alternatively, if pathogenic heat is intense and accumulates internally, it can damage blood vessels and, over time, form pus. This condition falls under the categories of lower abdominal pain, leucorrhea, infertility, and abdominal masses in TCM, making it one of the common gynecological diseases. Depending on the clinical manifestations, different medications can be selected based on the symptoms.
