How to treat endometrial shedding?

Endometrial shedding is a normal phenomenon caused by the influence of body hormones on the uterus. Menstruation will occur when shedding occurs. However, for some women, severe endometrial shedding will prolong the menstrual cycle and increase the amount of menstruation, which will cause great damage to the uterus. When patients find that their condition is developing towards a serious trend, they should receive regular disease treatment. So how to treat endometrial shedding?

The main treatment methods are:

1. Progesterone

By adjusting the feedback function of the hypothalamus-pituitary-ovarian axis, the corpus luteum can be atrophied in time and the endometrium can be shed completely and on time. You can start taking progesterone supplements daily 1-2 days after ovulation or 10-14 days before the next menstruation for 10 consecutive days. Those who want to have children can inject progesterone intramuscularly or take natural micronized progesterone orally. Those who do not desire to have children can take oral monophasic contraceptives, starting on the 5th day of menstruation, 1 tablet per day for 21 consecutive days as a cycle, and take 3 consecutive cycles to suppress ovulation.

2. Chorionic gonadotropin

HCG can be injected intramuscularly every other day after the basal body temperature rises, for a total of 3 to 5 times, to promote corpus luteum function.

3. Surgical treatment

1. To calm patients’ fears, non-technical language should be used as much as possible so that patients can understand, help them reduce their anxiety and fear about the disease and surgery, build their confidence, and actively cooperate with treatment and care.

2. General care should strengthen nutrition and provide a high-calorie, high-protein, and high-vitamin diet.

3. Surgical patient care

(1) Preoperative care should include routine preparation, including visceral function examination and skin preparation.

(2) Patients should be advised that surgery is the treatment of choice and that laparotomy should be performed as long as the patient's general condition can tolerate it and there are no contraindications to surgery.

4. Postoperative care and treatment

Take anti-inflammatory medication and have regular check-ups. After surgery, patients should take anti-infective drugs as directed by the doctor. In addition, they should go to the hospital for regular check-ups to keep abreast of their physical recovery after surgery. Pay attention to personal hygiene and suspend sexual intercourse. Patients need to rest for a period of time after surgical treatment and sexual intercourse is strictly prohibited. Having sex too soon after surgery can cause irritation to the cervical wound due to semen and sexual activity. This affects the healing of cervical wound surface. In addition, you should also pay attention to personal hygiene to avoid bacterial invasion and infection, which is not conducive to physical recovery.
