Patient's question:
I have an itchy lower body, and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? What are some good treatments for chronic endometritis?Doctor's answer:
Endometritis is usually caused by miscarriage, postpartum infection, or septic miscarriage, which is relatively severe in such cases. It can also occur in women who have an intrauterine device (IUD) placed, or with conditions such as endometrial polyps, submucosal uterine fibroids, or endometrial cancer. Common bacteria that cause endometritis include E. coli and staphylococcus. It is recommended to try oral Chinese herbal medicine Guizhenqianpian (capsules) for 3–4 courses, with 2–3 courses for milder cases. Each course lasts 14 days and can lead to recovery. Maintain external genital hygiene, bathe frequently, and change underwear. During this period, sexual activity and tub baths should be avoided for at least 1 month.
