What bacterial infection is pelvic inflammatory disease?

Pelvic Inflammatory Disease (PID) is a group of inflammatory diseases caused by infection of the female upper reproductive tract, mainly involving the uterus, fallopian tubes, ovaries and pelvic peritoneum. The pathogenic bacteria are complex and diverse, and it is usually a mixed infection of multiple microorganisms. The following is a compilation and analysis of pelvic inflammatory disease-related topics and hot content that have been hotly discussed across the Internet in the past 10 days.

1. Common pathogenic bacteria of pelvic inflammatory disease

The pathogens of pelvic inflammatory disease mainly include sexually transmitted pathogens, aerobic bacteria and anaerobic bacteria. The following are the classification and characteristics of the main pathogenic bacteria:

2. Recently hotly discussed topics related to pelvic inflammatory disease

1.Drug-resistant Neisseria gonorrhoeae infections on the rise: It has been reported in many places that gonococci are becoming more resistant to commonly used antibiotics, making it more difficult to treat pelvic inflammatory disease.

2.The insidious nature of chlamydial infection: About 70% of women infected with Chlamydia trachomatis are asymptomatic and are prone to delayed treatment and development of chronic pelvic inflammatory disease.

3.Microbial imbalance and pelvic inflammatory disease: Research shows that the reduction of vaginal lactobacilli is positively correlated with the incidence of pelvic inflammatory disease.

3. Typical symptoms of pelvic inflammatory disease infection

1.Acute phase manifestations: Lower abdominal pain (90%), fever (50%), abnormal vaginal discharge (75%)

2.Chronic phase characteristics: Pelvic adhesions, infertility (about 20% of patients), chronic pelvic pain

3.Laboratory inspection indicators:

4. Latest perspectives on prevention and treatment

1.Precautions:

• Safe sex (condom usage rate must be above 95%)

• Regular gynecological examination (recommended once a year)

• Avoid vaginal douching (destroy normal flora)

2.Treatment principles:

• Empirical antibiotics need to cover aerobic and anaerobic bacteria

• Outpatient treatment for mild cases, hospitalization for severe cases requiring intravenous medication

• Sexual partners need to be treated simultaneously (to prevent reinfection)

5. Special reminder

The "self-healing method for pelvic inflammatory disease" recently circulated on the Internet lacks scientific basis. Data shows that patients with pelvic inflammatory disease who have not received standardized treatment:

It is recommended to seek medical treatment promptly when suspected symptoms occur. Standard treatment can reduce the risk of serious complications by more than 90%. Maintaining reproductive health requires a combination of scientific knowledge and regular check-ups. Do not trust online remedies.
