What is pelvic inflammatory disease?

Patient's question:

I have a good friend who started feeling uncomfortable in her vagina a few days ago. Later, she went to the hospital for a check-up, and the doctor told her that she had pelvic inflammatory disease, which was quite severe. After taking many medications, it didn't help at all.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) is a common gynecological condition. The pelvic region refers to the area including the uterus, both fallopian tubes and ovaries, as well as the supporting tissues of these organs. The cause is usually an infection of the internal reproductive organs. Healthy women rely on their natural defense mechanisms. Under normal circumstances, this disease rarely occurs. However, if they do not pay attention, the chance of getting this disease will be very high.
