How to diagnose and treat adnexitis

Adnexitis is a gynecological disease with a relatively high incidence rate. This disease is caused by hydrosalpinx or ovarian cysts, and female patients need to undergo surgical treatment, otherwise it will lead to infertility. For the treatment of adnexitis, fallopian tube unblocking surgery can be used, and in severe cases, the adnexae need to be removed to avoid affecting the patient's life safety.

1. Surgical treatment. If it causes severe hydrosalpinx or fallopian tube cysts, surgical treatment is required. Fallopian tube obstruction can lead to infertility, and tubal plastic surgery can be used to clear the blocked areas of the fallopian tube. For some recurring chronic salpingitis, oophoritis, pelvic peritonitis, drug treatment is not ideal, and the patient is relatively old, then you can consider removing the adnexa, or removing the uterus and adnexa together.

2. Treatment with traditional Chinese medicine is effective for patients with milder conditions and chronic adnexitis, but the course of the disease is relatively long and it is difficult to persist. Patients with more severe symptoms can be treated with antibiotics. Antibiotics can kill any remaining pathogenic genes and prevent acute attacks of the disease. If it is acute adnexitis, the patient should be treated with antibiotics, and the treatment must be thorough to avoid it from turning into chronic adnexitis.

3. Treatment with topical drugs. This method is currently more recommended because the female reproductive system has a natural defense function and can resist bacterial invasion under normal circumstances. If the body's resistance decreases or the defense function is destroyed due to other reasons, adnexitis will occur, which requires treatment with medication.

Causes of adnexitis

There are many ways for patients to develop adnexitis. Because adnexitis is a serious problem between the fallopian tube and the ovary, when some pathogens enter, it will cause inflammation or spread the infection to adnexitis through other pathways. What are the pathways of adnexitis formation?

1. If women have some enteritis or more serious colitis, if it is not treated in time, the pathogenic bacteria will spread to the genitals through the lymphatic vessels of the colon, which will easily cause inflammation of the reproductive organs.

2. If some female patients with appendicitis do not receive timely treatment and the treatment is delayed for a long time, the bacteria will break through the serosa of the appendix and flow into the right appendage along with the pus, and may even accumulate in the left appendage, eventually leading to an attack of adnexitis.

3. If female friends have tuberculosis, such as pulmonary tuberculosis. Tuberculosis bacteria can enter the genitals through the blood and cause adnexitis. As society continues to develop and environmental pollution becomes increasingly serious, sexually transmitted diseases are prevalent. Bacteria can enter the reproductive tract through other routes, such as using a toilet bowl or wearing a bathrobe, which can lead to adnexitis and affect health.

4. If female patients do not pay attention to cultivating good living habits in daily life. For example, taking a bath in a tub during menstruation, or using alkaline shower gel to clean the vulva on a regular basis, can easily disrupt the acid-base balance of the vulva, making bacterial infection more likely to occur.
