Patient's question:
My sister got married last year. She has been experiencing lower abdominal pain and cramps, especially on her period. She is very worried about it affecting her fertility and is also extremely sensitive to cold.Could you please advise on effective treatments for endometritis?
Doctor's answer:
Endometritis is the inflammation of the endometrium. According to the duration of the course, it can be divided into acute endometritis and chronic endometritis. The main manifestations of acute endometritis include fever, lower abdominal pain, increased leukorrhea, sometimes bloody or foul-smelling, and sometimes a slightly enlarged uterus with tenderness. Chronic cases also show similar symptoms, and may also include excessive menstrual bleeding, lower abdominal pain, and significant lumbosacral discomfort. Generally, using medication alone to treat endometritis and pelvic inflammation is not very effective. A combination of traditional Chinese and Western medicine, as well as physical therapy, can be considered for treatment.
