Will pelvic inflammatory disease get worse during menstruation?

During menstruation, due to the outflow of menstrual blood, the cervix and vaginal opening are in an open state. Due to the low resistance and immunity of menstruation, bacteria and bacteria are more likely to invade, which in turn aggravates inflammation. Some patients do not pay attention to their diet during menstruation, eat spicy or cold food, or have sex during menstruation, which can aggravate pelvic inflammation.

1. Will pelvic inflammatory disease get worse during menstruation?

After suffering from pelvic inflammatory disease, it will cause local congestion in the pelvic area, which will induce symptoms of increased menstruation and increased leucorrhea. At the same time, patients are also prone to dysmenorrhea during menstruation. The symptoms will worsen during menstruation, mainly due to factors such as decreased resistance of women during menstruation and cervical opening. During menstruation, you should strengthen care, pay attention to keeping the abdomen warm, private hygiene, avoid eating hair and spicy foods in your diet, and avoid aggravating the symptoms of pelvic inflammation.

2. Reasons for aggravation of pelvic inflammatory disease during menstruation:

1. Opening of the vagina and cervix

Menstrual blood is the shed endometrial tissue. When menstrual blood flows out, the cervix and vaginal opening will be in an open state, making it more likely for bacteria and germs to invade the pelvic cavity and other reproductive organs. At this time, if you do not pay attention to personal hygiene, it is easy to get infected, leading to aggravated inflammation.

2. Infection caused by external stimulation

If you are in the treatment stage of pelvic inflammation, if you do not pay attention to your diet during menstruation and often eat spicy and cold stimulating foods, it is also easy to stimulate the occurrence of inflammation. More patients choose to live together during menstruation, so the possibility of infection and recurrence will be greater.

3. Reduced resistance

During menstruation, the body's endocrine system changes, leading to a decrease in immunity. During the stage of low immunity, the chance of viral invasion increases. The pelvic cavity is in a state of continuous congestion during menstruation, which can also easily lead to increased inflammation.

The symptoms of pelvic inflammation will worsen during menstruation, mainly manifested as worsening abdominal pain, increased menstrual flow, dysmenorrhea, etc. In order to avoid worsening inflammation, it is recommended to strengthen life and diet care.
