Patient's question:
What to eat when suffering from endometritisI had an abortion surgery last month, and now I always feel discomfort down there, a bit itchy, and have a lot of discharge that is yellow and smells fishy and foul. What is going on? What should I do?
Doctor's answer:
The main symptoms of acute endometritis include fever, lower abdominal pain, increased leukorrhea (sometimes bloody or foul-smelling), and sometimes a slightly enlarged uterus with tenderness. Chronic cases present similarly and may also include heavy menstrual bleeding, lower abdominal pain, and pronounced lumbosacral discomfort. Generally, treating endometritis and pelvic inflammatory disease with medication alone is not very effective. A combination of traditional Chinese and Western medicine, as well as physical therapy, can be considered for treatment. Endometritis is an easily recurring gynecological condition. During medication, women need to pay attention to self-care, especially in terms of hygiene. It is recommended that patients avoid sexual activity during treatment and maintain good hygiene. Finally, we wish female patients a speedy recovery!
