Patient's question:
I had an episode last year. At that time, after checking at the hospital, I was prescribed medication, which quickly controlled the condition when taken internally. However, recently, discomfort has returned to my private area, and my discharge is abnormal with a very strong odor. Please ask: How is endometritis treated?Doctor's answer:
The main treatment method is to remove the cause: If it is caused by retained placenta or fetal membrane, the focus can be removed through curettage; If it is caused by endometrial polyps or submucosal fibroids, the polyps and fibroids should be surgically removed; If it is caused by an intrauterine device (IUD), it should be removed promptly; In elderly patients with recurrent chronic endometritis, diagnostic curettage should be performed, and the cervical canal should be dilated to ensure smooth drainage. During treatment, oral antibiotics should be taken in coordination to prevent reinfection. For patients with endometritis, in addition to medication, it is also necessary to pay attention to self-care, such as maintaining cleanliness, avoiding sexual intercourse, eating less spicy and irritating foods. Finally, it is advised that female patients must undergo regular follow-up examinations!
