What are the symptoms of pelvic inflammatory disease and leucorrhea?

The main symptom of chronic pelvic inflammatory disease is chronic pelvic pain or pain during sexual intercourse, and its leucorrhea may not change. Clinical leucorrhea abnormalities, such as increased leucorrhea volume, odor, tofu dregs, soap bubbles, etc., are mainly caused by vaginitis or cervical disease, and patients should go to a specialist hospital.

Pelvic inflammatory disease is a general term for inflammation of the female internal genital organs excluding the vagina, including metritis, salpingo-oophoritis, pelvic connective tissue inflammation and pelvic peritonitis. Generally speaking, the main cause of pelvic inflammatory disease is bacterial entry and infection after childbirth, cesarean section, abortion, gynecological surgery and unclean sexual life, which is the main cause of pelvic inflammatory disease.

In addition to the above reasons, the incidence of chronic pelvic inflammatory disease is also related to the following aspects:

1. Related to sexual activity

Some scholars have pointed out that the age of sexual life is closely related to the incidence of pelvic inflammatory disease. The earlier the sexual life begins, the higher the incidence of pelvic inflammatory disease; the incidence of pelvic inflammatory disease in women with frequent sexual activity is also significantly increased. Some scholars have pointed out that as the number of sexual partners increases, the risk of pelvic inflammatory disease in women will also increase.

2. Related to contraceptive measures

Studies have shown that women who use condoms or diaphragms for more than 2 years have a 23% lower incidence of pelvic inflammatory disease than women who use condoms or diaphragms for less than 2 years. Women who take oral contraceptives for a long time have a 50% lower risk of pelvic inflammatory disease compared to women who do not take birth control pills, while the risk of pelvic inflammatory disease is higher than that of women who do not take birth control pills.
