Patient's question:
How is endometritis treated? Will endometritis affect pregnancy? What are the side effects of endometritis?Doctor's answer:
Hello, endometritis is an inflammation of the endometrium. The main symptoms include irregular menstruation or uterine bleeding; lower abdominal pain or a sense of heaviness; increased vaginal discharge; fever, etc. Additionally, the uterus may become enlarged, tender to touch, and the surrounding tissues may thicken and be painful. Treatment for endometritis should target the cause of the inflammation in the endometrium. For example, if there is placental residue, it should be removed; if a breastfeeding device is placed inside the uterus, it should be removed as soon as possible; if there are uterine fibroids or polyps, they should be surgically removed. Endometritis is a gynecological disease that is prone to occur. During medication, women need to pay attention to their self-care, especially in terms of hygiene. It is recommended that patients pay close attention to maintaining clean external genitalia and changing underwear frequently. Finally, we wish female patients a speedy recovery!
