Patient's question:
Abdominal bloating and pain, relieved after applying cold compress, went to the hospital for examination, the doctor diagnosed endometritis. I would like to ask what are the symptoms of endometritis?Doctor's answer:
1. Leucorrhea will significantly increase, appearing purulent with a foul odor, or bloody. If acute endometritis occurs during the postpartum period, there may be excessive lochia discharge, which can have a foul odor in severe cases.2. Mild fever may reappear, accompanied by a sense of heaviness and distension pain in the lower abdomen, and persistent pain can be felt.
3. During a gynecological examination, purulent leucorrhea can be observed at the cervix, and the cervix may exhibit cervical motion tenderness. The uterus may show mild tenderness upon palpation. A leukocyte count may decrease, while neutrophils continue to increase.
Endometritis is an easily occurring gynecological disease. During medication, women need to pay attention to self-care, especially in terms of hygiene. It is recommended that patients pay close attention to vaginal hygiene and maintain a light diet. Finally, we wish female patients a speedy recovery.
