Can I get pelvic inflammatory disease if I don't have sex?

Pelvic inflammatory disease is a type of gynecological disease. Patients suffering from pelvic inflammatory disease are very likely to experience abdominal pain, lumbar pain, increased female secretions, etc. Many people think that pelvic inflammatory disease is related to sexual life, but some women who have no sexual life are diagnosed with pelvic inflammatory disease. What is the reason? Why do you get pelvic inflammatory disease even if you don’t have sex?

Female pelvic inflammatory disease is indeed closely related to sexual life. During sexual intercourse, the pelvis will swell, aggravating the pelvic inflammation, and then there will be uncomfortable symptoms such as pain during sexual intercourse. Suffering from pelvic inflammatory disease can affect women's physical and mental health and reproductive health, and can also cause complete disharmony in couples' life. Only by cooperating closely with treatment can the condition be alleviated.

Can women who do not have sex get pelvic inflammatory disease? This question confuses some women. There is no doubt that pelvic inflammatory disease can occur even if there is no sexual life. But relatively speaking, women who do not have sex have a much lower chance of getting pelvic inflammatory disease than women who have sex.

You know, the vagina is not a closed structure. If it becomes infected, bacteria will climb up through the vagina, infect the pelvis and cause pelvic inflammatory disease. The causes of pelvic inflammatory disease are not only sexually transmitted infections, but also lack of attention to daily hygiene, poor hygiene during menstruation, excessive fatigue, catching a cold, etc. can also cause pelvic inflammatory disease. Therefore, even if you have no sex life, you may still get pelvic inflammatory disease.

The symptoms of pelvic inflammatory disease are very obvious. After being diagnosed, effective treatment should be carried out to avoid delaying the disease and causing more serious conditions.

Therefore, even women who do not have sex should pay attention to preventing pelvic inflammatory disease, pay more attention to their private health, pay more attention to their own hygiene during menstruation, clean their private parts normally (cold water cleaning is enough), wash their underwear frequently, exercise more, and try not to use cleaning drugs or private washes.
