Pelvic inflammatory disease is a common gynecological inflammation, and if left untreated, it may lead to female infertility. Pelvic inflammatory disease mainly includes chronic endometritis, chronic ovarian inflammation, and chronic peritonitis. So, can pelvic inflammatory disease cause menstrual flow?
Pelvic inflammatory disease can lead to a decrease in menstrual flow. The common causes of its onset are infection after childbirth or miscarriage, unhygienic lifestyle habits, improper cleaning after sexual activity, or sexual intercourse during menstruation, all of which can cause inflammation.
Menstrual disorders are the most common harm of pelvic inflammatory disease, as it can cause pelvic congestion. Patients are highly likely to experience excessive menstrual blood during their menstrual period. If this inflammation affects the ovaries, it is likely to lead to menstrual abnormalities. If the inflammation in the pelvic cavity is not controlled in a timely manner, it is likely to cause adhesions in the uterine cavity, which are also the main symptoms of pelvic inflammatory disease in women. Low menstrual flow is also one of the types of menstrual disorders. So, pelvic inflammatory disease can lead to a decrease in menstrual flow.
The treatment methods for pelvic inflammatory disease include the following:
1. Perform medication treatment. Follow the doctor's advice and take some related medications.
2. Perform physical therapy. Promote the circulation of local blood in the pelvic cavity, improve its tissue state, accelerate metabolism, and dissipate inflammation. Mainly used for treating chronic pelvic inflammatory disease.
3. Perform surgical treatment. The method of surgery is mainly determined by the patient's age and whether they have fertility requirements. Local abscess can be removed and drained; If the uterus and bilateral adnexa are completely removed and drained, the effect will be better, but fertility will be lost.
