Pelvic Inflammatory Disease (PID)
Pelvic Inflammatory Disease (PID) is an infection of the female reproductive organs, often caused by untreated bacterial infections. If not managed on time, PID can lead to blocked fallopian tubes, chronic pelvic pain, and infertility. Dr. Nikita provides comprehensive diagnosis, treatment, and fertility care for women affected by PID.
Causes of PID
PID is usually a result of infection spreading from the vagina or cervix to the uterus, fallopian tubes, or ovaries.
- Sexually transmitted infections (STIs) like chlamydia & gonorrhea
- Untreated vaginal or urinary infections
- Unsafe abortion or unsterile medical procedures
- Repeated vaginal douching
Symptoms of PID
Many women have mild or no symptoms, but common signs include:
- Lower abdominal or pelvic pain
- Abnormal vaginal discharge
- Painful periods or intercourse
- Fever, nausea, or fatigue
How PID Affects Fertility
Chronic or untreated PID can damage the reproductive organs and make it difficult to conceive naturally.
- Scarring and blockage of fallopian tubes
- Increased risk of ectopic pregnancy
- Chronic pelvic pain and inflammation
- Reduced fertility potential
Treatment & Prevention
Early diagnosis and treatment are crucial in preventing long-term complications.
- Antibiotic therapy to treat infection
- Laparoscopy for blocked tubes or adhesions
- Fertility treatments like IVF if tubes are severely damaged
- Preventive care: safe sex, regular gynec checkups
