What will happen in the late stages of endometritis?

Endometritis does not have early or late stages. Some people may have more severe inflammation, with clearer signs of infection, which can even lead to elevated body temperature and mild ascites with severe surrounding circumstances. In such cases, etiological examinations are necessary, and treatment should be chosen based on specific etiological findings, including bacterial culture and drug sensitivity tests. Since endometritis is not cancer, there’s no such thing as a late stage—the condition may present as mild, severe, or chronic inflammation. Traditional Chinese Medicine and herbal treatments might be required. Therefore, if inflammation is present, there is no need to overly worry. It is important to begin treatment as soon as possible based on the specific circumstances, avoid sexual activities and excessive fatigue in the near term.

Can you get pregnant with endometritis?

When suffering from endometritis, it is not recommended to become pregnant during this time. It is better to wait until the endometritis is cured before trying to conceive. This is because endometritis can impact pregnancy. During the inflammation, a large number of white blood cells and macrophages appear on the surface of the endometrium, which can affect the vitality of sperm, leading to decreased sperm activity and even dead sperm, thus reducing the chances of pregnancy. Additionally, during endometritis, women may also develop anti-sperm antibodies, which hinder the implantation of the fertilized egg, preventing normal fertility. Therefore, it is advised for women to wait until after the endometritis is cured before trying to conceive.

Can endometritis be treated with injections?

Endometritis, as the name suggests, is the inflammation of the endometrium caused by pathogens, so it is necessary to use sensitive antibiotics for treatment. Endometritis generally manifests as purulent vaginal discharge, or an increase in purulent bloody discharge, tenderness in the uterine body, accompanied by increased temperature or slight fever. For endometritis, choosing a vaginal secretion smear or bacterial culture and drug sensitivity test, and using the corresponding sensitive antibiotics for infusion therapy, results in better outcomes, to avoid the progression to chronic pelvic inflammatory disease.
