The appearance of appendicitis requires active treatment. Due to the significant harm it poses to women's fertility, attention should be paid not only to methods but also to care during treatment.
Can appendicitis affect fertility?
1. Adnexitis requires active treatment and complete cure to ensure normal pregnancy. Otherwise, even if pregnant, it may still be an ectopic pregnancy, and both the pregnant woman and the fetus will be at great risk to their lives.
2. If not treated in a timely manner, appendicitis can often recur over time, with pelvic congestion, adhesion of various organs, and increasing fibrosis of connective tissue. Ultimately, it can trigger inflammation of the fallopian tube and affect the ovaries, leading to infertility.
3. In addition to affecting the normal function of the ovaries, adnexitis can also cause the fallopian tubes to thicken and become blocked, ultimately leading to hydrosalpinx. Hydrosalpinx entering the already adhered ovaries can cause fallopian tube ovarian cysts, becoming the culprit of infertility or ectopic pregnancy.
Susceptible population of appendicitis
1. Unscientific cleaning of the external genitalia for women: If the anus is washed first and then the vagina, bacteria from the anus will enter the vagina, leading to appendicitis. Physiological day potted plants are also prone to invading pathogenic bacteria, causing adnexitis.
2. Uterine cavity operations without strict disinfection, such as uterine absorption surgery, hysterosalpingography, cervical tube treatment, and poorly disinfected obstetric surgery, can cause adnexitis.
3. Female intrauterine device (IUD) insertion: The IUD itself does not cause adnexitis, but not strictly aseptic when placing the device, and not paying attention to personal hygiene after placing the device can cause adnexitis.
4. Tuberculosis patients: When tuberculosis patients have untreated or untreated latent infection lesions in their bodies, tuberculosis bacteria can spread through blood to cause appendicitis. Potential infections with other pathogens can also cause appendicitis, but tuberculosis is the most common.
5. Organs near accessory components are prone to inflammation: the more common type is appendicitis, which can directly spread and cause salpingitis, oophoritis, pelvic peritonitis, and inflammation usually occurs in the nearby fallopian tubes and ovaries.
6. Office women: sitting for a long time, especially office white-collar workers, has poor blood circulation. The pelvis has a special anatomical structure that blocks venous blood flow, affecting the excretion of uterine adnexal toxins, and long-term accumulation is likely to cause adnexitis.
