Patient's question:
Recently, I have experienced increased leukorrhea and dysmenorrhea. Sometimes, I also have mild abdominal pain outside of my menstrual period. My colleague heard my symptoms and said it might be endometritis, as she had similar symptoms when she had endometritis before. Now, I haven't gone for a check-up and don't know the specific situation. I'd like to understand what specific symptoms endometritis can cause?Doctor's answer:
Hello, when endometritis occurs, it can present with lower abdominal heaviness and pain, lower back and sacral soreness, increased leukorrhea that is thin, pale yellow, and sometimes bloody. The menstrual cycle remains regular, but menstrual flow increases, and the duration of menstruation extends. This type of pain is more common in nulliparous women. It is recommended to get checked promptly. Your condition is likely to be endometritis or pelvic inflammatory disease, among other gynecological conditions.
