👉 MIFLIN, which stands for Menstrual Infection with Fever and Low-grade Inflammation, is a type of gynecological infection characterized by the presence of fever and low-grade inflammation in the pelvic region, typically associated with an endometrial infection. This condition occurs when bacteria from the vagina or cervix ascend to the uterus, causing an inflammatory response. Common causes include sexually transmitted infections like chlamydia or gonorrhea, as well as bacterial vaginosis. Symptoms often include pelvic pain, abnormal vaginal discharge, and fever, though some women may be asymptomatic. Diagnosis is usually made through pelvic examination, blood tests, and sometimes imaging studies. Treatment typically involves antibiotics to eliminate the infection and reduce inflammation, often requiring multiple courses of medication to ensure complete eradication of the bacteria.
