Can pelvic inflammatory disease cause delayed menstruation?

Whether pelvic inflammatory disease will cause delayed menstruation should be judged according to the severity of the disease. If the disease is mild, it generally will not cause delayed menstruation. If the disease is severe, it will usually cause delayed menstruation.

1. It will not cause delayed menstruation: Pelvic inflammatory disease is a group of diseases caused by female reproductive tract infection, mainly including endometritis, salpingitis, tubo-ovarian cysts and pelvic peritonitis. The inflammation can be limited to one site or accumulate in several sites at the same time. If it does not accumulate in the ovaries, it usually does not cause delayed menstruation. Only mild clinical symptoms such as lower abdominal pain, sexual pain, increased vaginal discharge, and odor of discharge will appear.

2. It will cause delayed menstruation: If the patient's inflammation is more serious and accumulates in the ovaries, it will affect the normal function of the ovaries, leading to decreased ovarian function, prolonged menstruation, delayed menstruation, etc., so this situation will cause delayed menstruation.

Patients with pelvic inflammatory disease can take azithromycin dispersible tablets, minocycline hydrochloride tablets, levofloxacin hydrochloride capsules and other drugs under the guidance of doctors. For patients with severe conditions, surgical methods such as unilateral adnexectomy and bilateral adnexectomy can also be considered under the guidance of doctors. During the treatment process, we should pay attention to more rest and develop good hygiene habits, which is more conducive to the recovery of the body.
