Patient's question:
I had an episode last year. At that time, after checking at the hospital, I was prescribed medication, which quickly controlled the condition both internally and externally. However, recently, discomfort has returned to my private area, and my vaginal discharge is abnormal with a particularly strong odor. Could you please tell me: What are the specific dangers of endometritis?Doctor's answer:
The symptoms of endometritis include mild fever, lower abdominal pain, and increased vaginal discharge. The discharge may sometimes be bloody. If it is caused by anaerobic bacteria, the discharge will be foul-smelling. Some may experience irregular periods. If the inflammation is severe, it can spread to the uterine muscle, leading to uterine myometritis and the formation of many small abscesses. If the inflammation spreads outward, it can cause pelvic inflammation. During examination, the uterus may be tender and reduced in size, with tenderness and thickening of the surrounding tissues.Endometritis is an easily occurring gynecological disease. During treatment, women need to pay attention to their self-care, especially in terms of hygiene. It is recommended that patients maintain clean external genitalia, change underwear frequently, and wish female patients a speedy recovery!
