Salpingitis is an infection causing inflammation in the Fallopian tubes (also called salpinges). It is often included in the umbrella term of pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), along with endometritis, oophoritis, myometritis, parametritis, and peritonitis. Signs and symptoms
The symptoms usually appear after a menstrual period. The most common are:
an abnormal smell and colour of vaginal discharge, fever, nausea, vomiting, bloating, and frequent urination. Pain may be felt during ovulation, during periods, during sexual intercourse, on both sides of the abdomen, and lower back. Causes
The infection usually has its origin in the vagina and ascends to the Fallopian tube from there. Because the infection can spread via the lymph vessels, infection in one Fallopian tube usually leads to infection of the other. Risk factors
Its been theorized that retrograde menstrual flow and the cervix opening during menstruation allows the infection to reach the Fallopian tubes. Other risk factors include surgical procedures that break the cervical barrier, such as:

endometrial biopsy
curettage
hysteroscopyAnother risk is factors that alter the microenvironment in the vagina and cervix, allowing infecting organisms to proliferate and eventually ascend to the Fallopian tube:

antibiotic treatment
ovulation
menstruation
sexually transmitted disease (STD)Finally, sexual intercourse may facilitate the spread of disease from the vagina to the Fallopian tube. Coital risk factors are:

Uterine contractions
Sperm, carrying organisms upward

Bacterial species
The bacteria most associated with salpingitis are:
N. gonorrhoeae
Chlamydia trachomatis
Mycoplasma
Staphylococcus
StreptococcusHowever, salpingitis is usually polymicrobial, involving many kinds of pathogens such as Ureaplasma urealyticum, and anaerobic and aerobic bacteria. Diagnosis
Salpingitis may be diagnosed by pelvic examination, blood tests, and/or a vaginal or cervical swab.
Midol is a brand of over-the-counter analgesic drugs marketed for menstrual cramping and other effects related to premenstrual syndrome and menstruation. Various subbrands are formulated using different active ingredients. Midol is distributed by Bayer. Midol was originally sold in 1911 as a headache and toothache remedy that was considered safer because it did not use the narcotics typically used at the time. It was then promoted as a cure for hiccups claiming it controlled spasms, and finally as a remedy for menstrual cramps and bloating. A formulation sold in the 1980s was made with the sympathomimetic cinnamedrine. It had been reported to have abuse potential as an appetite suppressant and sympathomimetic agent. The "Midol Complete" formulation consists of:

Acetaminophen 500 mg (pain reliever)
Caffeine 60 mg  (stimulant)
Pyrilamine maleate 15 mg (antihistamine)The "Extended Relief" formulation consists of:

Naproxen sodium 220 mg (NSAID, pain reliever/fever reducer)The "Teen" formulation consists of:

Acetaminophen 500 mg (pain reliever)
Pamabrom 25 mg (diuretic)The "Liquid Gels" formulation consists of:

Ibuprofen 200 mg (NSAID, pain reliever)The "PM" formulation consists of:

Acetaminophen 500 mg (pain reliever)
