When sexually transmitted bacteria enters vagina and then spreads to uterus, ovaries and fallopian tubes, it becomes a condition known as the Pelvic Inflammatory Disease (PID) in women.
If women do not pay considerable attention to its symptoms like irregular menstrual bleeding, vaginal discharge with odor, abdominal or back pain, pelvic pain, and exhaustion, it might leave an irreversible damage to female reproductive organs. However, if things are under control then you can try these home remedies that help get rid of PID symptoms naturally:
Garlic
You should increase your garlic intake and a very effective remedy you can try. Fry two or three crushed garlic cloves in some olive oil, and continue frying them until they turn brown. Strain the oil, let it cool down, dip a cotton ball in this oil and then insert the cotton ball into your vagina. Remove the cotton and let oil do its action, i.e. it removes vaginal bacteria and prevents recurrence of such infections.
Tea Tree Oil
Strong anti-microbial properties of tea tree oil make it a very effective remedy for PID. Vaginal odor is one of the symptoms of PID and tea tree oil seems to eliminate this particular symptom really well, while eliminating other symptoms as well. Take a bowl with some warm water in it, add a few tea tree oil drops to it and use it to rinse your vagina. Do this for a month, or until you see the difference.
Castor Oil
PID cause abdominal or pelvic pain and castor oil works to ease that pain. The anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties of castor oil make it reduce the pain. You can massage your pelvic region using castor oil and experience pain relief. You can also apply a warm flannel cloth with two or three tablespoons of castor oil in it to cover your lower abdomen for 20 minutes every day, and soon you will realize the PID pain is all gone.
Foods rich in beta-carotene
Beta-carotene works on damaged mucous membranes of the reproductive tract and heals them fast. It also plays and integral role to prevent further infections by strengthening cervical cells. This means for women suffering from pelvic inflammatory disease, beta-carotene is of special help, so include foods loaded with it in your diet. Carrots, pumpkin, spinach, and sweet potato are some examples of foods that contain a good dose of beta-carotene.
Pelvic Inflammatory Disease in women demands a timely checkup and if things are not that severe, several home remedies are of great help eliminating all its symptoms, and some prevent its recurrence.
