Does mild pelvic inflammatory disease affect pregnancy?

If pelvic inflammatory disease is relatively mild, it generally will not affect pregnancy. However, it should be noted that if pelvic inflammatory disease is not promptly adjusted and treated when it is relatively mild, it can easily cause the symptoms to worsen, which is very harmful to health and can affect the fallopian tubes and cause adhesions in the lumen. This may lead to infertility, so even mild pelvic inflammatory disease should be taken seriously.

Gynecologists point out that if a woman suffers from pelvic inflammatory disease and the fallopian tubes are affected, causing adhesions and complete blockage of the tube lumen, it will affect future pregnancies and cause infertility. However, if the inflammation is only limited to the pelvic connective tissue and the fallopian tubes are not damaged, it will not affect future fertility. In any case, pelvic inflammatory disease should be treated promptly.

If you have acute pelvic inflammatory disease, you must cooperate with the doctor for timely and thorough treatment and strive to recover as soon as possible; generally speaking, according to the individual's physical condition, the disease will have the following development trends after the onset of the disease:

1. With good physique, strong resistance and timely treatment, inflammation can subside quickly and heal;

2. If the patient has a normal constitution and is treated promptly, the inflammation can be localized and not spread, forming a pelvic mass;

3. Poor physical condition, if not treated in time, the disease will continue to develop, become more and more serious, and even spread throughout the body, leading to sepsis;

4. Poor physical condition, failure to control inflammation in time, or incomplete treatment of acute inflammation, the disease progresses into chronic pelvic inflammatory disease, which sometimes has subacute attacks, called subacute pelvic inflammatory disease.

Experts remind: Some pelvic inflammatory diseases are characterized by chronic inflammation, and the symptoms are often not obvious. Therefore, it is very important to prepare for a gynecological examination and testing of cervical secretions before pregnancy. The purpose is to give the uterine reproductive tract a thorough cleaning before pregnancy, to welcome the arrival of the baby cleanly and safely, and to provide the baby with a safe intrauterine environment.
