The consequences of improper treatment of pelvic inflammatory disease

Women who suffer from pelvic inflammatory disease must find the right treatment method. Some patients use improper treatment methods for pelvic inflammatory disease, which will lead to many serious consequences for their health and cause more harm. So, what are the consequences of improper treatment of pelvic inflammatory disease?

1. Leading to female infertility

The most serious impact of pelvic inflammatory disease on female friends is that it can cause infertility. If pelvic inflammatory disease is delayed for a long time, it will directly affect the function of the uterus and fallopian tubes, especially chronic pelvic inflammatory disease, which will cause the fallopian tubes to rigidify or block, seriously affecting the movement of sperm and the delivery of eggs, and ultimately causing infertility.

Chronic salpingitis is the most common factor that interferes with the normal functioning of the fertilized egg and is the common and main cause of tubal pregnancy. It has been reported abroad that pelvic inflammatory disease can increase the risk of ectopic pregnancy by 2.7 times.

3. Diffuse peritonitis

Inflammation can lead to pelvic peritonitis. If it continues to develop and worsen, it will form diffuse pelvic peritonitis, with symptoms of systemic poisoning, such as high fever, nausea, vomiting, and abdominal distension. Because the inflammatory exudation and cellulose coverage of the peritoneal surface can cause intestinal adhesions and abscesses, if the acute phase is not treated in time, it can develop into chronic pelvic inflammatory disease and lead to infertility. Therefore, if you do not want to cause such serious consequences, please seek timely treatment and recover soon.
