Patient's question:
Does a virgin get endometritis? Recently, I've noticed that my private area has been itchy and feels hot, as if it's being burned. Is this a sign of inflammation?Doctor's answer:
Virgins can also get endometritis. When treating endometritis, it is not only necessary to use antibiotics promptly but also to remove obvious triggers, such as removing an intrauterine device, clearing residual placental tissue from the uterine cavity, endometrial polyps, etc. If there is a submucosal uterine fibroid 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 chronic cases, physical therapy may also be considered. The recurrence of endometritis severely threatens women's health, and patients should avoid sexual activity during treatment and pay attention to personal hygiene. It is hoped that female patients can receive effective treatment.
