Patient's question:
Recently, I've noticed that my private area has been itchy and feels hot, as if it's being burned. Is this a sign of inflammation? Please ask: How can I prevent the occurrence of endometritis?Doctor's answer:
Hello! The prevention of chronic endometritis should first pay attention to menstrual hygiene and avoid sexual activity during menstruation to prevent pathogens from taking advantage of the opportunity to infiltrate. Secondly, attention should be paid to breastfeeding to prevent unnecessary miscarriages. Delivery and uterine cavity surgery should be performed in regular hospitals with strict sterilization to prevent direct industrial contamination during surgical operations. Women with a possible risk of infection should receive prophylactic anti-inflammatory treatment. Acute endometritis often recurs after miscarriage or during childbirth, which is related to retrograde infection of the uterine wound by bacteria. Therefore, actively treating reproductive tract inflammation before childbirth, and paying attention to personal hygiene after miscarriage and childbirth, will play a certain role in preventing the recurrence of acute endometritis.
