Precautions for sexual life in patients with chronic pelvic inflammatory disease

Pelvic inflammatory disease is a common gynecological disease that can cause infertility in severe cases. It refers to inflammation of the uterus, fallopian tubes, ovaries and surrounding tissues. If acute pelvic inflammatory disease is not treated thoroughly, it can easily turn into a chronic disease, which increases the difficulty of treatment and can seriously affect the quality of sexual life.

Patients with acute pelvic inflammatory disease should avoid sexual intercourse to avoid aggravating their condition. Although patients with chronic pelvic inflammatory disease can have sexual intercourse, they should pay attention to the following matters to avoid unnecessary consequences.

Control of strength: The movements should be slow and gentle, and the frequency of sexual intercourse should not be too frequent.

Male cooperation: Males should pay attention to hygiene during sexual intercourse to prevent repeated infection or mixed infection.

Choice of timing: Sexual intercourse should be performed when the patient's condition is relatively stable and his/her physical condition has recovered better.

Change of body position: Due to differences in the severity of the patient's condition and individual differences, patients should choose according to their own condition, with the principle of reducing or avoiding pain.

Post-event treatment: Both men and women should wash their vulva after sexual intercourse. If a condom is used during sexual intercourse, the woman only needs to wash her vulva.
