What are the commonly used medicines for gynecological inflammation?

Gynecological inflammation is a very common disease. Female friends must learn more about this type of knowledge so that they can have good treatment effects. When gynecological inflammation occurs, medication becomes a relatively simple treatment method. Among the methods of drug treatment, Chinese patent medicine is used by most patients because its side effects are relatively small.

1. Chinese patent medicine plays a leading role

Compared with Western medicine, traditional Chinese medicine, which is considered safe and has few side effects, is probably more popular. Our country is a country where traditional medicine is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and the powerful traditional Chinese medicine has never been relegated to a "supporting role". With effective advertising and the deep influence of traditional medicine, it is difficult for Chinese patent medicines to remain famous in various gynecological inflammations.

However, whether it is chronic cervicitis, vaginitis or chronic pelvic inflammatory disease, the best choice should not be Chinese patent medicine. Most gynecological Chinese patent medicines have the effects of clearing away heat and detoxifying, can play a good role in regulating endocrine, and are beneficial to physical conditioning, but they are slow to take effect and not very targeted. They are generally used as an auxiliary treatment for chronic gynecological inflammation and are not the first choice of treatment. Otherwise, using "slow soldiers against a strong enemy" may cause the pathogens of inflammation to take the opportunity to spread and develop, thereby delaying the consequences of the disease.

2. Stop taking the medicine when symptoms are relieved

According to the habits of most people, whether a disease is cured or not is probably judged based on symptoms. If the symptoms are gone, the disease is cured and there is no need to take medicine anymore. Little do people know that for diseases like chronic pelvic inflammatory disease, symptom relief does not mean recovery. If it cannot be cured, it will often relapse once it encounters a trigger. Experts remind that the treatment of gynecological inflammation should have a strict "course of treatment" concept. Don't stop when you see the results are good, but "press on the advantage" to defeat the disease in one fell swoop.

3. Inappropriate treatment

Although vaginitis and chronic cervicitis are both inflammations, their natures are very different and they should be treated differently. Vaginitis is mostly an inflammation caused by pathogens such as bacteria and fungi; while chronic cervicitis is caused by multiple factors such as endocrine changes, external stimulation, human papillomavirus infection, etc., and requires comprehensive treatment. For example, for cervical erosion, physical treatment methods such as laser, freezing, and microwave should be used. Both the treatment plan and the treatment drugs are very different from vaginitis. If you suffer from cervicitis, you must also rule out the possibility of cancer and precancerous lesions. Women over 18 years old should have a cervical screening once a year; if the results are normal for three consecutive years, the examination should be changed to once every 2-3 years.
