Patient's question:
Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried it might affect my fertility, and I also feel extremely cold and sensitive to cold. Could you please explain why I might have endometritis? Is endometritis a gynecological inflammation? How is it treated?Doctor's answer:
Endometritis is a gynecological inflammation. Its cause is generally due to pathogenic bacterial infection. It is common during the menstrual period, miscarriage, and postpartum: such as residual placenta and fetal membranes during labor, masturbation during the menstrual period, prolonged uterine bleeding, incomplete miscarriage infection, unsterilized gynecological examinations, downward infections during intrauterine procedures such as induced abortion and various vaginal surgeries, downward infections from cervical, vaginitis, infections caused by purulent endometrial polyps or submucosal myomas. For treatment, it is necessary to completely remove intrauterine residues and other foreign bodies. It may require a uterine curettage followed by the use of anti-inflammatory drugs for treatment. In addition, during the treatment of gynecological diseases, in addition to medication, the patient's dietary condition and psychological state are also particularly important.
