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 also feel extremely cold and afraid of the cold. What are the symptoms of endometritis?Doctor's answer:
Acute symptoms primarily manifest as fever, lower abdominal pain, increased vaginal discharge, which may sometimes be bloody or foul-smelling, and occasionally a slightly enlarged uterus with tenderness. Chronic symptoms are also largely similar, and may include excessive menstrual bleeding, lower abdominal pain, and significant lumbosacral discomfort. Acute endometritis can further progress to myometritis, salpingitis, and pelvic inflammatory disease. It is recommended that you seek medical treatment at a hospital to avoid missing the optimal treatment window. Wishing you good health.For patients with endometritis, in addition to medication, it is also important to pay attention to self-care measures, such as maintaining cleanliness, avoiding sexual intercourse, and reducing the intake of spicy and irritating foods. Lastly, we urge female patients to undergo regular follow-up examinations!
