Patient's question:
What are the causes of pelvic inflammatory disease? What are the causes of pelvic inflammatory disease in women?Doctor's answer:
Neglecting hygiene during menstruation: During menstruation, the endometrium sheds, blood sinuses in the uterine cavity open, and there are blood clots present, which provide a favorable environment for bacterial growth. If hygiene is not paid attention to during menstruation, using sanitary napkins or toilet paper that do not meet hygiene standards, or engaging in sexual activity, can provide bacteria with the opportunity for retrograde infection, leading to pelvic inflammatory disease.
