Pelvic Infections Treatment
What is Pelvic Infection & PID Treatment?
Pelvic Infections and Pelvic Inflammatory Disease (PID)are serious bacterial infections affecting a woman's reproductive organs. When lower genital tract infections (like bacterial vaginosis or cervicitis) are left untreated or self-medicated with generic OTC washes, pathogens migrate upward into the uterus, fallopian tubes, and ovaries.
At Dr. Deepika Lalwani (Nagwani)'s Clinic in New Kalyani Nagar & Wadgaon Sheri, Pune, we emphasize accurate, culture-based diagnostics to prevent chronic complications like tubal scarring, ectopic pregnancy, and long-term pelvic pain. Led by Dr. Deepika Lalwani (MBBS, DGO Mumbai) with over 10+ years of dedicated clinical experience, we provide compassionate, targeted medical care.
Every consultation, pelvic exam, and follow-up is conducted strictly by prior appointment in our tranquil clinic, ensuring absolute privacy, complete confidentiality, and pristine sterilization.
Yeast Infection vs. Bacterial PID: Key Differences
Many women mistake early upper tract pelvic infections for a simple yeast infection. Recognizing the difference is crucial to preventing tubal damage.
Yeast Infection (Candidiasis)
Superficial Vaginal • Non-Scarring
Fungal overgrowth (Candida albicans) inside the lower vaginal canal.
Thick, white, curd-like (cottage cheese) texture, completely odorless.
External itching and burning; no deep lower abdominal aching or fever.
Superficial mucosal condition; causes zero fallopian or uterine tissue scarring.
Bacterial PID (Pelvic Infection)
Upper Tract Infection • Scarring Risk
Pathogenic bacteria ascending into uterus, fallopian tubes, and ovaries.
Heavy, yellowish or greenish discharge, frequently accompanied by a foul odor.
Deep lower abdominal cramps, painful intercourse (dyspareunia), and fever.
Can cause permanent tubal blockage, ectopic pregnancy risks, or subfertility.
Pelvic Infection Services We Provide
Our clinical practice provides advanced diagnostic swabs and targeted antimicrobial therapies to resolve infections permanently.
Vaginal Discharge & Vaginitis Care
Diagnostic evaluation and targeted eradication of Candida yeast infections, Bacterial Vaginosis (BV), and Trichomoniasis to restore natural vaginal flora.
Pelvic Inflammatory Disease (PID) Care
Targeted, evidence-based antimicrobial regimens halting upper genital tract inflammation, shielding fallopian tubes and endometrium from chronic scarring.
Pathogen-Specific Culture Diagnostics
High vaginal and endocervical swab cultures isolating the exact microbial pathogen instead of relying on empiric over-the-counter guesswork.
Post-Infection Tubal Fertility Shield
Ultrasound and clinical monitoring after infection clearance to ensure fallopian patency and prevent tubal factor subfertility.
Our Pre-Procedure Preparation & Safe Guidelines
Adhering to proper clinical guidelines is vital to eradicate pathogens completely and prevent recurrent infections.
Detailed Symptom Reporting
Share all symptoms including deep lower abdominal aching, pain during intercourse, foul-smelling discharge, or mid-cycle spotting during consultation.
Full Antibiotic Compliance
Always complete the full prescribed course of antibiotics or antifungals, even if symptoms subside within 48 hours, to prevent chronic recurrence.
Concurrent Partner Treatment
If a sexually transmitted pathogen is diagnosed, simultaneous partner treatment is mandatory to break the cycle of continuous reinfection.
Our Diagnostic & Treatment Care Protocol
A structured, evidence-based clinical pathway to isolate pathogens and restore comfort without guesswork.
Every treatment and procedure at our clinic is performed with the highest standards of safety, compassion, and clinical expertise. Dr. Deepika Lalwani ensures each step of your journey is carefully monitored and optimized for the best possible outcomes.

Step 1: Clinical Evaluation & Bimanual Exam
A gentle pelvic bimanual examination by Dr. Deepika Lalwani checking for cervical motion tenderness, uterine tenderness, or adnexal swelling.
Step 2: High Vaginal Swab & Microscopy
Collecting endocervical and vaginal swab specimens for wet-mount microscopy and laboratory culture sensitivity testing.
Step 3: Transvaginal Pelvic Ultrasound Scan
Sonography inspecting the uterus, ovaries, and fallopian tubes to rule out fluid accumulation (hydrosalpinx) or tubo-ovarian abscesses.
Step 4: Targeted Antimicrobial Therapy & Follow-Up
Prescribing DCGI-approved dual-action oral or injectable antibiotics, paired with a mandatory 14-day clearance check to confirm complete healing.

Frequently Asked Questions
In Pune, a specialized pelvic infection consultation with Dr. Deepika Lalwani is ₹600 to ₹800. Diagnostic testing—including high vaginal swab microscopy and bacterial/fungal culture sensitivity—typically ranges from ₹1,200 to ₹2,500. If a pelvic ultrasound is required to rule out upper tract complications (such as hydrosalpinx or tubo-ovarian abscess), it ranges from ₹1,500 to ₹2,500.
PID symptoms include persistent, dull aching in the lower abdomen, abnormal yellow/greenish vaginal discharge with a foul odor, deep pain during sexual intercourse (dyspareunia), burning during urination, irregular spotting between periods, and fever or chills in acute cases.
Yes, untreated PID is a leading cause of preventable tubal infertility and ectopic pregnancy. Ascending bacteria create permanent scar tissue (adhesions) inside the delicate fallopian tubes, blocking egg transport and creating life-threatening ectopic risks.
A yeast infection (Candidiasis) is a superficial fungal overgrowth inside the vagina causing itching and thick white discharge without pelvic pain. Bacterial PID is a serious upper tract infection reaching the uterus and fallopian tubes, causing deep lower abdominal pain, painful intercourse, and fever.
Over-the-counter intimate washes disrupt the natural acidic vaginal pH (3.8–4.5) and strip protective Lactobacillus bacteria. This worsens bacterial vaginosis and allows harmful pathogens to ascend past the cervix into the pelvic cavity.
Consultations are scheduled strictly by prior appointment during dedicated morning and evening hours in our New Kalyani Nagar clinic, guaranteeing absolute privacy, zero lobby crowds, and compassionate care with Dr. Deepika Lalwani.
