Does pelvic peritonitis always recur?

Many gynecological diseases are always difficult to cure, which is very harmful to women. Some women suffer from gynecological diseases all year round. It is painful! Take pelvic peritonitis for example. Many diseases are ignored by women, which leads to the continuous aggravation of pelvic peritonitis. So will pelvic peritonitis recur after being cured?

Causes of pelvic peritonitis

1. Postpartum or post-abortion infection:

After delivery, the mother is weak, the cervix fails to close in time due to the outflow of residual blood and turbid fluid, there is a placental detachment surface in the uterine cavity, or the birth canal is damaged during delivery, or there are residual placenta and fetal membranes, or if she has sexual intercourse too early after delivery, pathogens take advantage of the opportunity to invade the uterine cavity and easily cause infection; vaginal bleeding lasts too long during spontaneous abortion or medical abortion, or there is tissue residue in the uterine cavity, or the aseptic operation of the artificial abortion operation is not strict, etc., all of which can cause post-abortion infection.

2. Infection after intrauterine surgery:

Such as placement or removal of intrauterine contraceptive device, curettage, tubal insufflation, hysterosalpingography, hysteroscopy, submucosal myomectomy, etc., due to preoperative sexual life or lax surgical disinfection or inappropriate selection of preoperative indications, the original chronic inflammation of the reproductive tract may be disturbed by the surgery and cause acute attack and spread; some patients do not pay attention to personal hygiene after surgery, or do not follow the doctor's orders after surgery, which can also cause bacterial ascending infection and cause pelvic peritonitis.

3. Poor menstrual hygiene:

If you do not pay attention to menstrual hygiene, use unclean sanitary napkins and panty liners, take a bath during menstruation, have sexual intercourse during menstruation, etc., pathogens may invade and cause inflammation.

4. Direct spread of inflammation in adjacent organs:

The most common are appendicitis and peritonitis. Since they are adjacent to the female internal reproductive organs, the inflammation can spread directly and cause pelvic peritonitis. In chronic cervicitis, the inflammation can also spread through the lymphatic circulation and cause pelvic connective tissue inflammation.

Will pelvic peritonitis recur after being cured?

Whether pelvic peritonitis recurs may vary depending on the severity and scope of the inflammation. Generally, the recurrence of pelvic peritonitis is because the treatment of women is ineffective and they stop when they see improvement. Many women stop treatment without authorization when their symptoms improve slightly, so that the symptoms reappear soon after, and they need to be treated again, and the previous treatment will be wasted. If this repetitive process is delayed for a long time, it will eventually cause the pathogen to develop drug resistance, which will not only affect the efficacy of the drug, but also cause repeated inflammation and be difficult to heal for a long time. Therefore, female friends must effectively cure pelvic peritonitis.

【Things to note after recovery】

1. Avoid infection after childbirth or miscarriage. In short, avoid the patient's physical weakness after childbirth or miscarriage, and the bacteria in the cervix may ascend to infect the pelvic cavity, leading to the occurrence of this disease. Therefore, this situation should be avoided in daily life.

2. Pay attention to hygiene during menstruation. If you do not pay attention to hygiene during menstruation, use sanitary napkins or toilet paper that do not meet the hygiene standards, or have sex, this will provide bacteria with an opportunity for retrograde infection, which will eventually lead to pelvic peritonitis.

3. Avoid infection after gynecological surgery. In other words, you need to pay attention to bacterial infection caused by artificial abortion, IUD insertion or IUD removal, which can also cause pelvic peritonitis.

To sum up, there are many reasons that cause the recurrence of pelvic peritonitis after treatment. Therefore, female friends should avoid the recurrence of pelvic peritonitis by curing it once and for all, and not just leaving it after it is cured. They should pay attention to hygiene during menstruation and avoid infection from gynecological surgery.
