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 should endometritis be treated?Doctor's answer:
Endometritis is divided into acute and chronic types. Acute endometritis is generally caused by miscarriage, postpartum infection, the insertion of an intrauterine device, or cervical development. Additionally, pathogens such as sexually transmitted diseases can descend into the uterine cavity and infect the endometrium, leading to inflammation. Endometrial polyps and submucosal uterine fibroids can also cause endometritis. Chronic endometritis is primarily due to the failure to effectively control the condition during the acute phase, resulting in the worsening of the disease. When treating endometritis, in addition to appropriately using antibiotics, it is also necessary to completely remove residual placental remnants or endometrial polyps in the uterine cavity. If submucosal uterine fibroids or endometrial cancer are present, additional treatment should be administered based on the specific circumstances.
