When endometritis occurs, it affects a woman's ability to become pregnant normally. This is because endometritis causes abnormalities in a woman's menstrual cycle and vaginal discharge. If the endometrium is not actively treated, it can easily progress to chronic endometritis. Recurrent episodes can lead to adhesions, contractions, and narrowing of the uterine cavity, all of which can impact pregnancy. Even if fertilization occurs between the sperm and egg, forming a zygote, if the inflammation persists and is not well managed, it can also easily lead to miscarriage. Therefore, it is crucial to actively treat endometritis when it occurs.
