PID - #19839

I have been suffering from lower back pain for about 5 months, I thought it was a past injury I sustained in an accident 9 years ago or maybe a side effect of multiple epidural injections I had during C-sections. But then for two month I started experiencing severe abdominal pain on the left side. The pain will come a day prior to my period( that’s when it is at its worst) will continue for the duration of the period and maybe a day after. I begin to worry but then thought it could be that I maybe approaching menopause since I am 40 years old. A week ago I suffered a severe back/abdominal pain that I couldn’t even move my waist. I was taken to the hospital and I explained to my doctor all the symptoms. They did an ultrasound and discovered an ovarian cyst on my left ovary and fluid collection with inflammation. The diagnosis says PID. I was prescribed a Ceftriaxone IV(a single dose that was administered right away), a doxycycline 100mg capsules to be taken twice daily for 10 days, metronidazole 400mg trice daily for 7 days and mycoten tabs to be inserted in tithe vagina at night for 6 days. On the 5th day of using the medications my periods starts with all the painful symptoms, but now more severely on the right side. Today is day two of my circle. I need help!

Hello Fareeda, I’m sorry to hear about the pain and complications you’re experiencing. In Ayurveda, conditions like pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), ovarian cysts, and menstrual discomfort are often linked to an imbalance in the Pitta and Vata doshas, which can cause inflammation, pain, and digestive disturbances. To support your healing process, herbs like Ashwagandha, Turmeric, and Shatavari may help balance the hormones, reduce inflammation, and support reproductive health. Dietary changes, such as avoiding cold, heavy foods, and focusing on warm, nourishing meals can help restore balance. It’s also important to manage stress and improve digestion, as they can influence your overall health. Have you had any follow-up tests to assess the ovarian cyst, and what were the results of the ultrasound regarding fluid collection and inflammation? How is your digestion and energy levels?

Given your current situation and symptoms, it’s vital to follow the prescribed medical treatment for the PID (Pelvic Inflammatory Disease) you mentioned. These antibiotics are essential in treating the bacterial infection and preventing any further complications. PID, as you might know, is a serious condition, and it’s crucial to complete the entire course of antibiotics even if symptoms improve. The presence of an ovarian cyst and inflammation are additional factors here that must be monitored closely by your healthcare provider.

Ayurvedic approaches can complement, but not replace this treatment. Upon completing your antibiotic course, Ayurveda may offer supportive measures for long-term recovery and overall reproductive health.

First, let’s address the inflammation and potential imbalance in vata dosha, which is likely contributing to your pain. You can include warm, cooked foods in your diet, favoring spiced or seasoned dishes using ginger, cumin, and fennel, which can help improve digestion and reduce fluid retention. Avoid cold, raw, or overly processed foods as they can aggravate vata.

Daily gentle pelvic and lower back massages with warm sesame oil can provide relief and improve circulation. Ensure this is done with light pressure, definitely avoiding painful areas. Gentle yoga or stretching, specifically for the pelvic and lower back areas, might also aid in easing tension, but consult with a specialist before beginning exercise post-PID diagnosis.

Ashwagandha and Shatavari are herbs that might prove beneficial post-treatment, but only under the guidance of an Ayurvedic practitioner who can tailor them to your constitution and current health needs.

Avoid stress through practices like meditation, breathing exercises, or light mantras which can relax the mind and body. Staying hydrated, getting enough rest, and avoiding strenuous activity will also support the body’s healing processes.

Reassess with your doctor if symptoms worsen or do not improve post-medication. Ayurveda can be a supportive friend, but modern medicine is necessary when dealing with infections of this severity.
