Patient's question:
Actually, it's usually fine, but I always get sick after my period. The specific symptoms are itching in the private area and a heavy, aching pain in the lower abdomen. Is this a sign of inflammation? How does endometritis occur?Doctor's answer:
Endometritis is caused by bacterial infection. During menstruation, childbirth, miscarriage, and various uterine procedures, bacteria are prone to enter, leading to endometritis. Poor personal hygiene, masturbation during menstruation, and sexual activity with individuals suffering from sexually transmitted diseases also increase the risk of recurrence. Pay attention to menstrual hygiene and avoid sexual activity during menstruation to prevent pathogens from infiltrating. Additionally, it is important to focus on breastfeeding and prevent unnecessary abortions. For patients with endometritis, in addition to timely treatment, proper self-care is essential. During treatment, maintain hygiene and keep the private area clean. Lastly, it is crucial for female patients to undergo regular follow-up examinations!
