Patient's question:
These days, I've been feeling severe lower abdominal pain, and there's also irregular bleeding. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, the doctor said it was endometritis. In this case, a D&C (dilation and curettage) surgery is necessary.Doctor's answer:
Hello, Dilation and Curettage (D&C): Can clarify the cause of the disease and rule out malignant lesions. Three days of preoperative inflammation control should be maintained, and postoperative anti-inflammatory treatment should continue. Intraoperative procedures should be gentle, as the infected uterine wall is fragile and prone to uterine perforation. In elderly endometritis, the endometrium is thin, and more attention should be paid during scraping. Post-abortion endometritis may have residual embryonic tissue, which should be carefully and comprehensively scraped for examination, often serving a therapeutic effect simultaneously.
