What are the complications of long-term chronic pelvic inflammatory disease?

Complications of chronic pelvic inflammatory disease:

3. Infertility: Pelvic inflammatory disease will directly affect the function of the uterus and fallopian tubes, especially chronic pelvic inflammatory disease, which will cause the fallopian tubes to stiffen or block, seriously affecting the movement of sperm and the delivery of eggs, and ultimately causing infertility.

4. Ectopic pregnancy: Pelvic inflammatory disease is often caused by untimely treatment. Over time, it can cause adhesion of the inner mucosa of the fallopian tube, leading to narrowing or closure of the lumen. In this way, the movement of eggs, sperm or fertilized eggs will be blocked, resulting in ectopic pregnancy.

5. Dysmenorrhea: Since pelvic inflammatory disease involves all internal parts of the reproductive organs, including inflammation of the uterus, fallopian tubes and ovaries, the range of dysmenorrhea caused is very large, mainly manifested as persistent pain in the upper abdomen on both sides, which can radiate to the waist, sometimes accompanied by a feeling of heaviness and distension in the anus.
