Not paying attention to hygiene can easily cause appendicitis. 6 points to keep away from diseases
There are many reasons for the occurrence of appendicitis, which is also a common gynecological inflammation and poses a serious threat to women, especially in terms of fertility. We should pay attention to reasonable prevention.
Attachment inflammation hazards
1. Easy to cause ectopic pregnancy: Chronic adnexitis can cause adhesion and occlusion of the fallopian tubes, but if the fallopian tube lumen is not completely blocked, it is highly likely to cause ectopic pregnancy.
2. Impact on female fertility: The initial symptoms of adnexitis are not obvious, and when discovered, it has become chronic. Chronic adnexitis can cause adhesions and occlusion of the fallopian tubes, affecting their normal function. It prevents the ingestion of eggs into the fallopian tubes, preventing them from meeting sperm and preventing conception.
3. Causing endocrine disorders: One of the attachments is the ovaries that control women's endocrine system. If the ovaries are inflamed, it can prevent them from performing normal physiological functions, leading to endocrine disorders.
4. Inducing other diseases: When the fallopian tubes adhere due to inflammation, they accumulate water and pus.
Causes of appendicitis
1. Uterine cavity operations that have not been strictly disinfected include uterine absorption surgery, hysterosalpingography, cervical tube treatment, and poorly disinfected obstetric surgery for appendicitis.
2. Women with unclean sexual intercourse: sexually transmitted diseases such as gonorrhea. After infection, gonococcal bacteria spread upwards along the mucosa, causing appendicitis.
3. Women with intrauterine devices: With the widespread use of intrauterine devices, the incidence of adnexitis caused by intrauterine devices is also increasing. It should be noted that the intrauterine device itself does not cause adnexitis, but if the device is not strictly sterile when avoided, or if personal hygiene is not taken into account after placement, it 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. When nearby organs become inflamed, inflammation can easily spread. The more common type is appendicitis, which can directly spread and cause salpingitis, oophoritis, and pelvic peritonitis. Inflammation generally occurs in the nearby fallopian tubes and ovaries.
6. Women who do not pay attention to local hygiene: Diligently changing underwear and keeping the genital area clean can avoid many gynecological inflammations. If one does not pay attention to personal hygiene, especially during menstruation, postpartum, or after miscarriage, their resistance decreases, and pathogens are prone to infection in the reproductive tract, spreading to the fallopian tubes, ovaries, and even the entire pelvis, causing adnexitis and pelvic inflammatory disease.
