Patient's question:
During the physical examination, the doctor said I have endometritis, sometimes lower abdominal pain and a sense of heaviness [4 or 5 days before menstruation], with watery vaginal discharge.Doctor's answer:
Hello, women with endometritis often experience lower abdominal dull pain or a sense of fullness, pain in the waist muscles, increased vaginal discharge that is watery, pale yellow, purulent, or bloody. They may also have irregular vaginal bleeding, prolonged periods, dysmenorrhea, or amenorrhea. The uterus appears spherical, soft, and tender, with possible bloody or purulent discharge. Approximately 20% of chronic endometritis patients may be asymptomatic and only discovered during a gynecological examination. Once diagnosed, it is essential to seek timely treatment to avoid the development of other conditions, the consequences of which are unimaginable.It is recommended to adopt a combination of traditional Chinese and Western medicine treatment, as this approach does not lead to drug resistance and yields better results. For traditional Chinese medicine, Gynecological Qianjin Tablets (capsules) are recommended. Generally, 3–4 treatment courses are needed, with 2–3 courses for milder cases. Each course lasts 14 days.
Pay attention to postpartum hygiene: maintain cleanliness of the external genitalia, bathe frequently, and change underwear. During this period, sexual activity and tub baths should be avoided for at least 1 month.
