Patient's question:
I have always suffered from chronic endometritis, which has been fluctuating with ups and downs and has never been fully treated. Moreover, I often experience a sensation of lower abdominal heaviness. During periods of leukorrhea, it tends to be abundant and viscous. Could you please advise on the best way to treat endometritis?Doctor's answer:
Acute endometritis is often caused by cross-infection during childbirth or intrauterine and uterine surgery. If treatment is not timely and effective, it may become chronic. It is characterized by congestion, edema, and inflammatory exudates in the endometrium, which may even lead to ulcers. Common symptoms include increased leukorrhea, purulent blood discharge with a foul odor, lower abdominal pain, and lower back pain. It can progress to conditions such as uterine myitis, tubo-ovarian abscess, pelvic peritonitis, pelvic connective tissue inflammation, sepsis, and bacteremia.Methods for treating endometritis: Proper physical therapy, comprehensive treatment, appropriate medication, and a combination of traditional Chinese and Western medicine. Appropriately using antibiotics can effectively alleviate and eliminate inflammation; a combination of traditional Chinese and Western medicine addresses the superficial symptoms of the disease.
