How is chronic pelvic inflammatory disease caused and how is it treated?

Chronic pelvic inflammatory disease may be caused by poor hygiene habits, infection with exogenous pathogens, infection with endogenous pathogens and other factors, and should be treated with medication.

1. Bad hygiene habits:

For example, sexual intercourse during menstruation, the use of unclean sanitary napkins, pads, and sexual intercourse without condoms may lead to bacterial invasion, which spreads upward along the genital mucosa, enters the vulva, vagina, and pelvic cavity, and causes chronic pelvic inflammation.

2. Infection by exogenous pathogens:

Including Chlamydia trachomatis, Neisseria gonorrhoeae, Mycoplasma genitalium, etc. After these exogenous pathogens enter the pelvic cavity, they will multiply and grow in the pelvic cavity, leading to pelvic inflammatory lesions.

3. Endogenous pathogen infection:

It is mainly caused by the imbalance of the microbiome, such as Staphylococcus aureus, hemolytic Streptococcus, colorectal cancer bacteria, Bacillus fragilis, etc. The ecological imbalance of these flora can lead to the over-reproduction and growth of harmful bacteria, leading to pelvic inflammation.

In addition to the above reasons, there may be other reasons, such as intrauterine surgery, frequent vaginal washing, etc. Under the guidance of a doctor, you can use drugs such as injection of ceftriaxone sodium, injection of cefoxitin sodium, and metronidazole injection. Keep clean in daily life and avoid unclean sex.
