Patient's question:
Last year, I had an episode of endometritis. At that time, 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 started feeling uncomfortable again. Could you please advise on the best way to treat and alleviate endometritis?Doctor's answer:
Endometritis refers to endometrial inflammation caused by the transmission of pathogenic bacteria. It is one of the common gynecological diseases. In clinical diagnosis, it can be divided into two major categories based on its onset: acute endometritis and chronic endometritis. Additionally, due to the specific causes of onset and clinical diagnostic symptoms, it can be further classified into gonococcal endometritis, tuberculous endometritis, and senile endometritis. Acute endometritis is characterized by fever, chills, lower abdominal pain, and an increase in vaginal discharge that is continuous, cloudy, and foul-smelling. Chronic endometritis is often associated with lower abdominal heaviness and pain, lower back and sacral soreness, and an increase in vaginal discharge.
