Infection in the female reproductive tract and female reproductive organs is termed as pelvic inflammatory disease or PID. PID occurs when the bacteria moves from the cervix to uterus and fallopian tubes. This disease will lead to ectopic pregnancy, chronic pelvic pain, infertility, ovarian abscesses, peritonitis, adhesions, and perihepatitis. PID can be chronic or acute or silent disease. Most of the women do not experience any symptoms. Lack of symptoms does not correlate with the severity of the disease. Sometimes, there might not be any symptoms even if there are serious blockages and adhesions leading to infertility. This article focuses on some of the home remedies that can help treat pelvic inflammatory disease. As this disease involves an infection causing inflammation, both the infection and inflammation have to be treated.
The alkaline environment in the intestines will not allow the microbes to grow. Baking soda effectively alkalizes the colon and helps in eliminating the infection in pelvis as well as in the other organs of the body. Baking soda has to be dissolved in water and taken every day to see better results.
Turmeric has antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties. Curcumin present in the turmeric provides relief to the disease condition as it is a powerful natural antibiotic and anti-inflammatory agent.
The bacterial cells are effectively destroyed by the sulfur compounds present in the garlic. The diallyl sulfide property in garlic helps as anti-inflammatory and antibacterial agent.
Eating foods rich in beta-carotene helps in strengthening the cervical cells and prevent or fight with infection. Consuming foods like pumpkins, mangoes, spinach and sweet potatoes two times per day can help you to supplement your body with high amounts of beta-carotene.
A small cup of yoghurt consists of numerous Lactobacillus acidophilus bacteria that are considered as good bacteria. The bacterium that causes PID is Gardnerella vaginalis. Lactobacillus is found to be poisonous to the Gardnerella. So, one cup of yoghurt is applied in the vagina and left for three hours. It is washed off later and the process can be repeated for about three days to see better results.
