Patient's question:
I have been experiencing severe stomach pain recently. Sometimes it feels like being pricked by needles inside my stomach. The pain is so intense that I can't work. After checking at the hospital, I was diagnosed with endometritis. What are the causes of endometritis?Doctor's answer:
Hello, endometritis is divided into two types: acute and chronic. The main causes of acute endometritis are miscarriage, puerperal infection, insertion of an intrauterine device, radium needles, cervical dilation, diagnostic curettage, or physical treatments such as cervical electrocautery, laser, or microwave therapy. Ascending infections from pathogens such as sexually transmitted diseases can also cause it. Additionally, endometrial polyps, submucosal uterine fibroids, and other conditions often lead to endometritis. The causes of chronic endometritis are largely similar to those of acute endometritis.
