Patient's question:
I am a patient with chronic endometritis. Due to being deceived by a private hospital and undergoing a cervical erosion surgery, I contracted an infection. Later, I had an ovarian cyst surgery due to an ovarian cyst. After my period this month, three days later, I had a hysteroscopy examination and found that the left uterine horn was bleeding and the left fallopian tube was blocked. Five days before my period, I experienced a small amount of dark or brownish blood. Five days after my period, the blood flow increased, lasting for about 10 days in total. I am desperately seeking help from Doctor Ma. I have experienced severe abdominal pain many times and am considering having my uterus removed, but I am hesitant because I do not have children. What kind of help can you provide?Hello, can this condition be cultured in a petri dish? What treatments and examinations are needed?
Doctor's answer:
Chronic inflammation of the endometrium is called chronic endometritis. It can evolve from acute endometritis; it can also be caused by prolonged tubal inflammation or severe cervical inflammation spreading inward; retained small amounts of placenta after intrauterine devices, childbirth, or miscarriage, as well as incomplete reorganization of the placental attachment area, can also trigger chronic endometritis. Additionally, submucosal uterine fibroids and mucosal polyps can lead to chronic inflammation of the endometrium. With proper treatment, the vast majority of patients with chronic endometritis can be cured, such as taking diethylstilbestrol orally every day to stabilize estrogen levels.
