Patient's question:
Last year, I had an episode of it. After checking at the hospital, I was prescribed medication, which quickly controlled it through both topical and oral use. However, recently, I've started experiencing discomfort in my private area again, along with abnormal discharge and a particularly strong odor. Could you please tell me what are the common ways to diagnose endometritis?Doctor's answer:
Hello, in 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 mistaking early cancer for inflammation and delaying treatment. In some cases, chronic conditions may also be considered for physical therapy.
