What is Adnexitis?
Adnexitis is a serious condition where there is infection and inflammation of the female pelvic organs, specifically the fallopian tubes and ovaries. It can present with abdominal pain, fever and foul vaginal discharge, and requires medical treatment. Some cases but not all are related to sexual activity and sexually transmitted diseases (STD). It is possible to get adnexitis without an STD. Delayed treatment can lead to infertility due to damage to the female reproductive organs.
Treatment of Adnexitis
Treatment is usually with antibiotics. These can be given orally or through injection in a hospital for serious cases. The doctor may also prescribe anti-inflammatory and pain medications. In severe cases, surgery may be needed to clean out the infection.
