Patient's question:
My mother has been experiencing frequent lower abdominal pain recently, irregular menstruation, and an increase in yellow discharge. She said she has chronic endometritis. How should this be treated? Please; how is endometritis better treated?Doctor's answer:
The main treatment method is to remove the cause: If it is caused by retained placenta or fetal membrane, the focus can be removed through curettage; if it is due to endometrial polyps or submucosal fibroids, the polyps and fibroids should be surgically removed; if it is caused by an intrauterine device (IUD), the IUD should be removed promptly; in elderly patients with recurrent chronic endometritis, diagnostic curettage should be performed, and the cervical canal should be dilated to ensure smooth drainage. During treatment, oral antibiotics should be taken concurrently to prevent reinfection. Endometritis is a gynecological disease that is prone to occur. During medication, women need to pay attention to their own care, especially in terms of hygiene. It is recommended that patients pay close attention to maintaining clean external genitalia and changing underwear frequently. Finally, we wish female patients a speedy recovery!
