Is endometrial thickening and pelvic effusion a serious disease?

Patient's question:

For the past three months, after menstruation, there has been bleeding in the middle vagina, with pink discharge. Occasionally, it has been yellow. An ultrasound was performed, which indicated that it was during the ovulation period, with the endometrium being too thick (1.5 cm) and fluid accumulation in the pelvic cavity. The doctor prescribed progesterone.

Doctor's answer:

Prevent various infection pathways, maintain cleanliness and dryness of the perineum, rinse the external genitalia with clean water every night, and ensure each person uses their own basin. Do not insert fingers into the vagina, nor use hot water or soap to wash the external genitalia. During pelvic inflammatory disease, there is a significant increase in leukorrhea, which is viscous, so it is necessary to change underwear frequently and avoid tight or synthetic fabrics.
Endometriosis not only affects the patient's physical health but also leads to gynecological diseases. Therefore, it is best to visit the gynecology department of a hospital for a check-up. After identifying the cause, symptomatic treatment should be administered. In daily life, pay attention to dietary adjustments, consuming light and easily digestible foods, and avoid spicy, stimulating, or cold foods.
