Patient's question:
I've noticed that my white discharge has been particularly heavy recently, and my stomach has been feeling really uncomfortable. My colleague mentioned they're worried it might be endometritis. What are the symptoms of endometritis?Doctor's answer:
The dangers of endometritis should not be ignored. Due to the special location of endometritis, long-term recurring episodes can lead to various gynecological infections, which may also affect sexual life. Severe cases may even result in infertility. All these complications can impact and threaten health, marriage, and other aspects of life. Therefore, if you suspect you have endometritis, it is crucial to take it seriously early on to avoid the following situations.Treatment suggestions: Avoid long-term use of anti-inflammatory drugs, as this can lead to drug resistance and dysbiosis, potentially causing more severe inflammatory infections. Avoid gynecological examinations and surgeries during menstruation, such as vaginal surgeries, tubal patency tests, intrauterine device insertion, etc., to prevent pathogens from descending and causing infections. For patients with severe increased vaginal discharge, it is recommended to seek medical attention immediately and follow the doctor's advice for prompt treatment.
