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. What are the effective treatments for endometritis?Doctor's answer:
Endometritis can be divided into tuberculous and non-tuberculous types, and it is a significant factor leading to infertility. Acute endometritis is often caused by cross-infection during childbirth or during intrauterine or uterine surgery. If the treatment is incomplete or delayed, it may become chronic. It is characterized by congestion, edema, and inflammatory exudates in the endometrium, and it may even form ulcers. Common symptoms include increased vaginal discharge, purulent blood-like discharge with a foul odor, lower abdominal pain, and lower back pain. It can develop into conditions such as endomyometritis, tubo-ovarian abscess, pelvic peritonitis, and pelvic connective tissue inflammation, and in severe cases, it can even lead to sepsis or bacteremia. The recurrence of endometritis poses a serious threat to women's health.
