Treatment of gynecological adnexitis in the elderly

Adnexitis requires appropriate treatment based on the condition. For the elderly, it is very important to seek medical treatment in a timely manner so that the cause can be identified as soon as possible and targeted treatment can be carried out.

Adnexitis refers to inflammation of the adnexal area such as the ovaries and fallopian tubes, often caused by infection. For older women, as they age, their immunity declines, hormone levels change, and their reproductive systems are more susceptible to bacterial or viral invasion. Potential causes may include unclean living habits, long-term bacterial infection, or poor local blood circulation.

In terms of treatment, for mild inflammation, doctors may recommend antibiotics to control infection and anti-inflammatory and analgesic drugs to relieve symptoms. If the condition is more serious, intravenous medication or even surgery to clean up the lesions may be required. Some elderly patients may have other systemic diseases, so a comprehensive assessment of their physical condition is required before treatment to avoid other chronic diseases affecting the treatment effect.

It is very important to keep your private parts clean in daily life. It is recommended to choose underwear with good breathability and avoid long-term hot and humid environment. Pay attention to balanced nutrition, enhance immunity, strengthen exercise, and promote blood circulation. If you find symptoms such as lower abdominal pain, abnormal leucorrhea or fever, you should seek medical attention immediately to avoid delaying treatment.
