Four factors may cause acute pelvic inflammatory disease

As a more serious gynecological disease, the treatment of acute pelvic inflammatory disease must be timely and effective, otherwise it will turn into chronic pelvic inflammatory disease, which will have adverse effects on the patient's physiology and psychology. What are the causes of acute pelvic inflammatory disease? The following are some of them:

The main causes of acute pelvic inflammatory disease are:

(1) Postpartum or post-abortion infection: The patient is weak after childbirth or miscarriage, and the cervix has not yet closed well after dilation. At this time, the bacteria in the vagina and cervix may ascend and infect the pelvic cavity. If there are still placenta and fetal membranes remaining in the uterine cavity, the chance of infection is even greater.

(2) Postoperative infection in gynecological surgery: If the disinfection is not strict or there is chronic inflammation of the reproductive system during artificial abortion, IUD insertion or removal, tubal insufflation, salpingography, endometrial polyp removal, or submucosal uterine myomectomy, postoperative infection may occur. Some patients do not pay attention to personal hygiene after surgery, or do not follow the doctor's advice and have sexual intercourse, which can also cause bacterial infection and cause acute pelvic inflammatory disease.

(3) Not paying attention to hygiene during menstruation: During menstruation, the endometrium is exfoliated, the blood sinuses in the uterine cavity are open, and blood clots exist, which are good conditions for bacteria to grow. If you do not pay attention to hygiene during menstruation, use sanitary napkins or toilet paper that do not meet hygiene standards, or have sexual intercourse, it will provide bacteria with an opportunity for retrograde infection, leading to acute pelvic inflammatory disease.

(4) Spread of inflammation to adjacent organs: The most common occurrence is when appendicitis and peritonitis occur. Since they are adjacent to the female internal reproductive organs, inflammation can spread directly, causing acute pelvic inflammation in women. When suffering from chronic cervicitis, inflammation can also spread through the lymphatic circulation, causing pelvic connective tissue inflammation.

The above is an introduction to the common causes of acute pelvic inflammatory disease. In addition, experts specially remind patients with acute pelvic inflammatory disease and their families that once they suffer from acute pelvic inflammatory disease, they must seek treatment as soon as possible to avoid missing the best time for treatment. I wish all patients a speedy recovery.
