Patient's question:
Currently, in general: I went for an abortion on the 3rd of this month, but it's almost been a month now. However, I've been feeling a pain in my left abdomen. What could be the reason for this? Is it because of sexual activity with my boyfriend? If so, what should I do? Should I see a doctor or get checked? I'm really scared of getting a disease. I'm also afraid that I won't be able to have children in the future. Please help me quickly. But is it better to address this as soon as possible? I'm really scared now. I don't want to tell my family, and my boyfriend has also gone to Guangdong. I really don't know what to do. My best friendDoctor's answer:
Hello, I'd be happy to help you. Based on the problem you mentioned, chronic adnexitis refers to the inflammation that occurs in the female internal reproductive organs, including the uterus, fallopian tubes, ovaries, and surrounding connective tissues, as well as the pelvic peritoneum, when infection takes place. Chronic adnexitis mostly occurs postpartum, after cesarean delivery, after miscarriage, after various gynecological surgeries, and after the insertion of an intrauterine device. At this time, the integrity and natural defenses of the reproductive organs are damaged, allowing bacteria to enter the wound and cause infection. Metronidazole is not very effective against adnexitis. I suggest you go to the hospital for further examination. I hope my answer satisfies you!
