Patient's question:
Last year, I had an episode of endometritis. After checking at the hospital, I was prescribed medication, which included both topical and oral treatments, and the condition was quickly controlled. However, recently, I've been experiencing discomfort in my private area again, along with abnormal discharge and a particularly strong odor. Could you please advise on how to treat endometritis?Doctor's answer:
If you suffer from endometritis, you should rest in bed and adopt a semi-recumbent position to help localize the inflammation and drain the uterine cavity secretions. Cold compresses on the lower abdomen can be applied to promote the resolution of inflammation and improve blood circulation. It is essential to maintain bowel regularity to reduce pelvic congestion and aid in toxin metabolism. Excessive gynecological examinations should be avoided to prevent the spread of inflammation. Physical cooling methods can be used for high fever. A diet consisting of liquid or semi-liquid, easily digestible foods rich in high calories, high protein, and various vitamins is recommended. For those unable to defecate, intravenous nutrition and fluids should be administered, and attention should be paid to correcting electrolyte imbalances and acidosis. Endometritis is a gynecological disease that is prone to occur. During medication, women should pay close attention to their self-care, especially in terms of hygiene. It is advised that patients avoid sexual activity during treatment and pay more attention to cleanliness!
