Where is it good to check for endometritis

Patient's question:

Actually, it's usually okay, but I always get sick after my period. The specific symptoms are itching in the private area and a heavy, lower abdominal pain. Is this a sign of inflammation? Please ask: Where is the best place to check for endometritis?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, as you mentioned, it is an ultrasound for a gynecological examination. In human physiological structure, the uterus and its appendages are located in the central pelvic cavity between the bladder and rectum, in an anteriorly inclined and flexed position. However, MRI does not produce echoes for solid, liquid, and air-containing tissues. When the bladder is full, it appears as a liquid dark area on the sonogram, and at this time, the uterus is a hollow solid organ, which is more conducive to careful examination. If the bladder is not full and an MRI is performed for a careful examination, it may cause the gas in the bladder to overlap with the gas in the uterus, leading to misdiagnosis or missed diagnosis. In addition to transvaginal ultrasound for careful examination, which is an intra-cavitary MRI with an extended head, you can avoid holding your urine and can consult at the local hospital.
