Patient's question:
I feel very unwell. I often have lower abdominal pain, like being pricked with needles. Then I went to the hospital for a thorough examination. The doctor said I have endometritis. How should endometritis be treated?Doctor's answer:
The main reason is the downward transmission of gynecological inflammation, such as vaginitis, cervicitis, etc. The second reason is intrauterine surgical procedures, such as induced abortion.1. Downward transmission of inflammation. For example, if gynecological inflammation such as vaginitis, cervicitis, or cervical erosion is not treated promptly, bacteria may spread downward along the vagina and cervix or upward along the fallopian tubes, as well as through the lymphatic system, reaching the endometrium and causing endometritis.
2. Intrauterine surgical procedures. Procedures such as induced abortion, labor, or the insertion of an intrauterine device can transmit pathogens to the endometrium or lead to bacterial invasion, resulting in endometrial inflammation.
3. Inflammation within the uterine cavity. For example, if conditions such as endometrial polyps, submucosal uterine fibroids, chronic uterine bleeding, or endometrial cancer are not treated promptly and effectively, they may also lead to the recurrence of chronic endometritis.
