Patient's question:
I had an episode last year. At that time, after checking at the hospital, I was prescribed medication. Both the topical and oral treatments quickly controlled it. However, recently, discomfort has returned to my private area, and my discharge is abnormal with a very strong odor. Which hospital would be better to treat endometritis?Doctor's answer:
Endometritis generally requires a thorough examination:1. With a speculum examination, a large amount of purulent or dirty bloody, foul-smelling discharge is observed overflowing from the cervix.
2. During bimanual examination, cervical motion tenderness is present. The uterus is enlarged due to congestion and edema, soft, and shows significant tenderness upon palpation.
3. Cervical scraping and laboratory tests reveal an increase in total white blood cell count and neutrophils.
4. Laboratory tests: Blood and endometrial cavity secretion bacterial culture and drug sensitivity tests can be performed to confirm the diagnosis and provide reference for treatment.
5. Ultrasound examination: Ultrasound can provide a preliminary diagnosis of the intrauterine condition.
