Does infertility with appendicitis affect pregnancy?

Patient's question:

I had an abortion last year, and my recovery wasn't very good. After about a month, I had sexual intercourse again. After that, I experienced bleeding and went to the hospital for a check-up. They said I had adnexitis. I have been treated for it ever since, but after a period of time, I felt it was improving and had sexual intercourse again. Then it recurred. It has been more than a year now, and it still hasn't been cured. I want to have a baby, but I haven't been able to get pregnant.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, appendicitis can potentially affect pregnancy. It is still advisable to seek treatment as early as possible. This disease is quite stubborn, and after showing signs of improvement or being cured, it is important to maintain treatment for a certain period. It is recommended to take oral medication, and for severe cases, intravenous anti-inflammatory treatment should be administered simultaneously. Additionally, both partners should clean their external genitalia before sexual intercourse, and the actions should be gentle. Avoid sexual activity during menstruation, postpartum, and after an abortion.
