The occurrence of uterine adnexitis is related to sexual life

Adnexitis is also a common gynecological disease. Due to the important role of the uterine appendages - ovaries and fallopian tubes, the occurrence of adnexitis is often closely related to sexual life or activities related to sexual life. Therefore, everyone should pay more attention to it in daily life and take preventive measures.

Sexual life and factors related to sexual life, such as contraceptive devices, abortion or childbirth, may allow bacteria to take advantage of the opportunity to invade and cause infection and adnexitis.

Many women get infected in this way after marriage. For example, they use intrauterine devices and do not pay attention to personal hygiene, which opens the door for bacterial invasion. They have sexual intercourse during menstruation and bring in bacteria. Or their resistance decreases after childbirth or miscarriage, and pathogens infect the reproductive tract and spread to the fallopian tubes and ovaries, and then affect the entire pelvic cavity. Or after being infected with sexually transmitted diseases such as gonorrhea, the pathogens spread upward along the mucous membrane, causing infection and inflammation of the fallopian tubes and ovaries.

Improper hygiene is also one of the causes of adnexitis. When using water, wash the perineum first and then the anus. If you wash the anus first and then the perineum, the bacteria from the anus will be brought into the vagina, or if you use a bathtub during menstruation, the bacteria will also go up and invade the internal reproductive organs.
