MAJOR SYMPTOMS: Symptoms varying according to cause...
Pelvic pain can have many causes (many sexually transmitted organisms), including PID. Most women complain that doctors do not take their complaints of pelvic pain seriously--antibiotics are not always the best answer when doctors have trouble identifying the cause.
Endometriosis is estimated to affect a staggering number of women. The pain can be unbearable. The disease has been deemed mysterious, difficult to diagnose, and difficult to treat. The condition forms when rogue endometrial tissue can gather into clumps and attach themselves to other parts of the body such as lungs, ovaries, Fallopian tubes, and intestines. While attached to these different areas, the tissue will continue to exhibit menstrual properties. Surgery is not necessarily the answer. Signs to watch out for are pain during sex, heavy and irregular periods, pain when urinating or bowel movements, extreme fatigue, and sometimes there are no symptoms.
The present medication of Danazol, a testosterone-like drug often prescribed, can have dangerous side effects, such as flushes, seating, vaginitis, itching, weight gain, loss of libido, cease menstruation, acne, and growth of facial hair.
Aromatherapy is one of the most effective ways to assist with endometriosis disease. Other things to do are to exercise, take whole food supplements, and use water therapy (bath soaks) to help heal. One thing to remember is NEVER have sexual intercourse during your period through a couple of days afterwards.
Salpingitis is an inflammatory condition of the Fallopian tubes caused by bacteria. The condition can sometime follow acute appendicitis or an abortion, and can cause a great deal of pelvic pain.
Chlamydia is also a cause of pelvic pain. It is a stubborn organism and getting well can greatly be enhanced with alternative care options. Chlamydia is currently one of the most common sexually transmitted diseases in the world. It is often associated with gonorrhoea. See your doctor immediately, abstain from sexual intercourse, and all parties should be tested and treated.
PID or pelvic inflammatory disease is often used for as a collective term for many diseases that cause pelvin pain. As mentioned above, to keep from being infected over and over again, all parties must be treated and abstain from sexual intercourse until all is well. Again antibiotics are not always the answer.
Sexually transmitted diseases are extremely on the rise. Long gone are the "hippie" days of free love. Long gone are the days where you just go get a shot. These diseases are extremely serious and warrant your making intelligent choices. You cannot look at someone and determine whether or not they harbor an organism that in the extreme could end your life. Good advice is to abstain from sex until marriage; or have monogamous relationships, use condoms, see your doctor regularly, be responsible and don't infect others, and use plant therapy to assist with your getting well.
