Does endometritis affect fertility?

Patient's question:

Hello, I was diagnosed with endometritis. Can endometritis affect fertility? My husband and I are planning to have a child, and we are very worried that endometritis will affect our ability to have a baby.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, based on your description, the symptoms of endometritis include: (1) pelvic area pain, with lower abdominal heaviness and aching pain during the intermenstrual period, as well as lower back and sacral area soreness. (2) Increased leukorrhea due to increased secretion of endometrial glands. It is usually thin, watery, light yellow, and sometimes bloody leukorrhea. In elderly patients with endometritis, the leukorrhea is purulent and often contains a small amount of blood. When the uterus accumulates pus, the discharge is purulent with a foul odor. Patients with this condition should avoid smoking, alcohol, and spicy, irritating foods. In terms of diet, it is best to maintain a light and nutritious diet, exercise regularly, and keep a healthy body and mind.
