What to do if your endometrium becomes inflamed

1. General treatment

(1) The diet should consist of liquid or semi-liquid foods that are easily digestible and contain high calories, high protein, and multiple vitamins. For those who cannot eat, they should receive intravenous nutrition and water supplements, and pay attention to correcting electrolyte imbalance and acidosis.

(2) Patients with acute endometritis should rest in bed, preferably in a semi-recumbent position, to help limit the inflammation and drain the uterine secretions.

(3) Apply hot compress to the lower abdomen to promote the absorption of inflammation and relieve pain;

(4) Maintain smooth bowel movements to reduce pelvic congestion and facilitate toxin excretion;

2. Medication

(1) Intrauterine drug administration: For married patients, intrauterine drug administration can be used. Before the operation, the size and position of the uterus should be determined by bimanual examination. After the vulva and vagina are disinfected and the depth of the uterine cavity is detected, a sterile urinary catheter is inserted from the cervical os into the uterine cavity. The depth should be less than 0.5 cm. The selected drug is slowly injected into the uterine cavity through the urinary catheter. After all the drug liquid has entered the uterine cavity, the urinary catheter is removed, and the patient should lie flat or raise his hips for 1 to 2 hours. This method is used once a day and is discontinued during menstruation. Since this method can make the drug act directly on the lesion, it is often effective.

(2) Antibiotic treatment and cleaning of the uterine cavity: For endometritis that occurs after delivery or abortion, if there is suspected placental tissue residue, it should be removed immediately while using antibiotics. When the antibiotic dose reaches a certain level and the inflammation is under control, curettage can be performed to prevent the spread of inflammation. If there is active uterine bleeding, the uterine cavity can be cleaned with the use of large amounts of antibiotics.
