Patient's question:
I 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 could be going on? Please ask: How can endometritis be treatedDoctor's answer:
During the treatment of endometritis, it is not only necessary to promptly use antibiotics but also to remove obvious causes, such as removing an intrauterine device, completely clearing residual placental tissue in the uterine cavity, endometrial polyps, 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, and a diagnostic should be performed after the inflammation is controlled to rule out cancer. In some cases, chronic endometritis may also be considered for physical therapy. For patients with endometritis, in addition to oral medication, it is also necessary to pay attention to self-care, such as paying more attention to personal hygiene and avoiding sexual activity during medication. Finally, women patients are advised to undergo regular follow-up examinations!
