How to prevent adnexitis during menstruation

Adnexitis refers to inflammation of the fallopian tubes and ovaries. Acute adnexitis has obvious symptoms, such as sudden fever, chills, and severe pain in the lower abdomen. Chronic adnexitis causes intermittent abdominal pain, or dull pain, often accompanied by increased vaginal discharge and back pain. Women have low body resistance during menstruation, so they need to pay attention to preventing the occurrence of adnexitis.

1. Pay attention to menstrual hygiene

Menstruation is a special period when women should pay the most attention to personal hygiene. During this period, the uterus contracts violently and the cervix is ​​often in an expanded state, which is easy to be invaded by bacteria and cause inflammation. Therefore, sexual intercourse and unclean sexual intercourse should be avoided during this period, and underwear and sanitary products should be changed and washed frequently.

2. Avoid sitting for long periods of time

Many women have symptoms of dysmenorrhea. They can lie down, but don't sit for a long time. Sitting for a long time can lead to poor pelvic blood circulation, causing or aggravating abdominal pain, and obstruction of venous return affects the normal detoxification of the uterine appendages, causing adnexitis.

3. Don’t wear tight pants

Do not wear tight pants, and choose soft, loose cotton underwear to avoid harmful substances from stimulating the vagina and avoid vaginal inflammation from inducing adnexitis.

4. Keep a happy mood

During the menstrual period, women should learn to relax and reduce negative emotions such as depression and unhappiness, which will help the menstrual blood to be discharged smoothly and avoid the accumulation of toxic blood and inflammation in the future.
