,? -> The menstrual period is coming, should I still continue treatment for pelvic inflammatory disease?

Patient's question:

Hello doctor. I previously had pelvic inflammation and completed a course of treatment (7 days) with a result of 10-15 after the examination. Also, my period is supposed to come in the next two days. Do you think I should continue with the IV drip? Can I take medication instead?

Doctor's answer:

The main causes of pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) are postpartum infection, postoperative infection after intrauterine surgery, poor menstrual hygiene, and so on.
Advice: You can choose penicillin and metronidazole for intravenous drip. A course of treatment is 7 days, and intravenous drip should continue during the next menstrual period. After symptoms disappear, you can use traditional Chinese medicine for treatment.
