Patient's question:
Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I've already had an IUD inserted. Should I remove it before treatment? How is endometritis treated?Doctor's answer:
For the treatment of endometritis, the first step is to identify any underlying causes, such as retained placenta or intrauterine devices (IUDs). If these causes are present, they should be removed first, and the endometritis will recover quickly. Otherwise, indiscriminate anti-inflammatory treatment will not yield significant results. If an IUD has been placed, it should be removed. Postpartum or post-abortion endometritis should undergo thorough curettage to remove residual atrophic placental tissue. If endometrial polyps are present, they should be excised.1. Medication Treatment: Mild cases of endometritis in women can be treated with medication. The specific oral medications and administration methods must be implemented under the guidance of a doctor.
2. Physical Therapy: For moderate to severe cases where medication treatment is ineffective, physical therapy can be considered.
