Patient's question:
I feel very unwell, and I often have lower abdominal pain, like being pricked with needles. Then I went to the hospital for a thorough examination, and the doctor said I have endometritis. How can endometritis be treated and improved?Doctor's answer:
Hello, during the treatment of endometritis, in addition to primarily using antibiotics, it is also necessary to remove obvious causes, such as removing an intrauterine device, completely clearing residual placental tissue or endometrial polyps in the uterine cavity, etc. If there are submucosal uterine fibroids or endometrial cancer, additional treatment should be provided based on the situation. In cases of uterine cavity abscess, the cervical os should be dilated to force pus drainage. After the inflammation is controlled, a diagnostic should be performed to rule out early-stage uterine cancer, to avoid misdiagnosing early cancer as inflammation and delaying treatment. For chronic cases, physical therapy may sometimes also be considered.What should be noted during the treatment of endometritis is to pay attention to rest, maintain menstrual hygiene, and practice external genital hygiene and care. During the post-treatment care and management process, it is recommended to eat more fruits, vegetables, and light foods.
