Patient's question:
I got married last year. Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried about it affecting my fertility, and I'm also extremely sensitive to cold and coldness. How can I prevent endometritis?Doctor's answer:
Preventive measures for chronic endometritis should first focus on menstrual hygiene, avoiding sexual activity during menstruation to prevent pathogens from infiltrating. Secondly, attention should be paid to breastfeeding to prevent unnecessary abortions. For childbirth and uterine cavity surgery, it is essential to undergo procedures in strictly sterilized, hospitals to avoid direct industrial contamination during surgical operations. Women with a potential risk of infection should receive prophylactic anti-inflammatory treatment. Since acute endometritis often recurs after miscarriage or childbirth, associated with retrograde bacterial infection of the uterine wound, actively treating reproductive tract inflammation before childbirth and maintaining personal hygiene after miscarriage and childbirth can play a certain role in preventing the recurrence of acute endometritis. Patients with acute endometritis should be treated promptly to avoid it worsening into a chronic condition.
