It causes inflammation of the ovaries

Causes inflammation of the ovaries are many and varied, and a gynecologist before starting treatment oophoritis must reliably determine what led to this pathological process. This is necessary for the appointment of high-quality and adequate therapy, as well as help to avoid complications such woman as infertility.

About inflammation of the ovaries say when affected paired gonads located in the pelvis, and are responsible for the normal menstrual cycle and ovulation full Ovulation - How to determine as accurately as possible? . Depending on the nature of the infectious agent distinguish endogenous and exogenous oophoritis. When inflammation of the ovaries first pathogen enters the fallopian tube, where it causes inflammation of the mucosa (endosalpingit), which is manifested by hyperemia (redness), exudation, violation of microcirculation and the formation of perivascular infiltrates. The folds of the mucous membrane of the fallopian tube necrotic, exfoliated and stick together. Then pathological microorganisms through the abdominal (peritoneal) end of the tube hit the ovarian epithelium and the surrounding peritoneum, and after the break in the follicle granulosa shell and develop oophoritis. If the inflammation and increased fallopian tube surrounds the ovary, a conglomerate formed purulent inflammatory tubo-ovarian or education.

We are predisposing factors that lead to inflammation of the ovary

Inflammation of the ovaries is the result of the presence of predisposing factors that weaken the body's defenses. These include:

• various gynecological procedures (diagnostic curettage Scraping - heavy and unsafe procedure   the uterus, the medical abortion Medical abortion - be wary of the ordinary , Hysterosalpingography, the introduction of an intrauterine device, a puncture of the abdominal cavity through the posterior vaginal fornix);
• Complications during surgery (damage to the bowel, bladder and ovaries themselves);
• inflammatory diseases of the uterus (endometritis chronic and acute);
• inflammation of the vagina and cervix (vaginitis, endocervicitis, cervical erosion);
• acute infectious diseases (tonsillitis, flu, pneumonia), in which the pathological microorganisms get into the ovaries or hematogenous lymphogenous way;
• inflammation of the intestines (appendix, rectum and sigmoid);
• non-compliance or violation of the rules of personal hygiene;
• prolonged and obstructed labor, especially with massive blood loss;
• chronic somatic diseases (diabetes, obesity, diseases of the hypothalamus);
• constant stress, neuroses and psychoses;
• poor diet and lifestyle (abuse of tobacco, alcohol);
• long stay at the beach or in the solarium Solarium: harm or benefit? ;
• hypothermia (wet feet, sitting on the cold ground);
• sex life during menstruation;
• frequent change of sexual partners;
• douching with cold water.

Causes inflammation

There are specific and non-specific inflammation of the ovaries. Non-specific oophoritis caused by pathogenic or conditionally pathogenic flora. It includes staphylococci (mainly gold), streptococci (or B-hemolytic group B), Escherichia, Enterococcus, Staphylococcus epidermidis. Specific inflammation of the ovaries causing microorganisms that are sexually transmitted (gonorrhea, trichomoniasis, chlamydia, ureaplasma, herpes simplex virus). Characteristically, gonorrhea and trichomonas often lead to acute process, while chlamydia is hidden, and then chronic oophoritis.

Usually, the infection with the inflammation of the ovaries combined, there are several pathological microorganisms lead to the development of oophoritis. Note that Trichomonas actively involved in the transport of other pathological bacteria. In addition, the role of carriers of Toxoplasma, Neisseria gonorrhoeae and Mycoplasma play sperm.

Bilateral inflammation of the ovaries

Inflammation of the ovaries may be either one-way or two-way process where both ovaries are affected. Particularly unfavorable prognostic in terms of bilateral inflammation of the ovaries, as a woman's chances of becoming infertile increase. Inflammation of the ovaries is often combined with lesions of the fallopian tubes is called salpingo or adnexitis. Oophoritis must necessarily treated as in the absence of therapy, the process proceeds into a chronic, which is virtually untreatable. Terrible disease among all forms of inflammation of the ovaries is the formation piovarov (purulent fusion of the ovaries).

As you know, in the female body are paired gonads, or ovaries. The ovaries have an important role, they produce hormones and are responsible for the regulation of the menstrual cycle and oocyte maturation for subsequent fertilization. The process, as noted above, may be either one-sided or two-sided. Also distinguish acute and chronic inflammation of the ovaries.

Causes of bilateral ovarian inflammation

Bilateral inflammation of the ovaries is often caused by pathological microorganisms that are sexually transmitted. These include gonorrhea, trichomoniasis, chlamydia and ureaplasma. But often bilateral inflammation of the ovaries and has a non-specific nature (staphylococcus, streptococcus, E. coli, etc.). Agents that give rise to inflammation in the ovaries, which can enter the following ways:

• hematogenous (through the blood);
• lymphogenous (with a current of lymph);
• downlink (from the intestine, such as inflammation of the appendix);
• upward (as obesity).

Clinical manifestations

There are acute and chronic bilateral inflammation of the ovaries.

• Acute bilateral inflammation of the ovaries

Acute bilateral ovarian inflammation is characterized by sudden onset of fever and symptoms of intoxication. Patients complain of a lack or loss of appetite, nausea, vomiting. Characterized by intense pain on both sides of the abdomen. Pain radiating to the lower back, pelvis and lower limbs. With the development of purulent lesions ovarian pain so intense that patients take a forced position (lying on your side with knees bent legs). When you break the ovaries develop pelvic peritonitis with a voltage abdominal muscles, symptoms of irritation of the anterior abdominal wall and high temperature. When viewed objectively marked tachycardia Tachycardia - the body to the limit?   and pale skin. In addition, acute inflammation of the ovaries observed bilateral pain during intercourse, and intermenstrual bleeding.

During a pelvic exam Gynecological examination: an important component of women's health   in the field of appendages on both sides probed painful and enlarged ovaries. The displacement of the cervix is ​​also painful. Also, there are intense from the genital tract, which are purulent.

• Chronic bilateral inflammation of the ovaries

Exacerbation of chronic process is the same picture as in bilateral acute inflammation of the ovaries. In remission patients say constant aching pain in the abdomen Abdominal pain: when to sound the alarm? That leads to mental disorders Mental Disorders - when life is fun   (depression, tearfulness). A characteristic feature of bilateral chronic inflammation of the ovaries is a violation of the menstrual cycle (giperpolimenoreya, intermenstrual bleeding or amenorrhea). Patients also complain of the inability of sexual activity because of sharp pain in the area of ​​appendages. Also one of the terrible consequences of chronic bilateral oophoritis is the development of infertility.

Treatment

Acute bilateral ovarian inflammation and exacerbation of chronic process should be performed in a hospital. Appointed adequate nutrition, emotional and physical rest. The main role in the therapy of inflammatory bilateral ovarian withdrawn antibiotics (in view of sensitivity to them pathological microorganisms). In addition, it carries out detoxication therapy, prescribed vitamins. When recovery or remission appointed physiotherapy and spa treatment.
