Abstract:

PID, or pelvic inflammatory disease, is a polymicrobial illness of the upper reproductive tract in females that is frequently brought on by ascending STDs. The mainstay of management is still pharmaceutical treatment, but supplementary food therapy, or diet therapy, is attracting more interest due to its possible ability to influence the immune system, lower inflammation, and encourage tissue repair. Current knowledge about diet therapy for PID is reviewed in this abstract, with a focus on the importance of gut microbiota support, antioxidants, and anti-inflammatory nutrients. Diets high in zinc, selenium, omega-3 fatty acids, vitamins C and E, and foods high in probiotics may boost immunity and lower oxidative stress. Additionally advised is avoiding items that cause inflammation, such as processed foods, saturated fats, and refined carbohydrates. Despite the paucity of clinical studies, new research suggests that dietary interventions can be used as complimentary approach to control PID, possibly leading to better results and a lower risk of recurrence. To create consistent dietary recommendations for PID treatment and recovery, more study is required.
