Endometritis can be divided into acute endometritis and chronic endometritis. During acute endometritis, it is necessary to avoid sexual activity, as this not only aggravates the endometritis but also leads to its spread due to sexual stimulation. Additionally, sexual arousal can increase vaginal secretions, likely causing inflammation and symptoms such as lower back pain and soreness, which can affect a woman's mood and decrease her libido. It is advisable to wait until the inflammation is under control and the body has returned to normal before resuming regular sexual activity.

Where to apply moxibustion for endometritis?

Endometritis is not recommended to be treated with moxibustion, as moxibustion is not effective for this condition. Generally, if there is pelvic inflammation or vaginal inflammation, it is better to use topical medications for targeted treatment. Clinically, endometritis manifests as abdominal pain during menstruation, accompanied by an abnormal odor. Treatment typically involves oral medications or intravenous anti-inflammatory drugs for symptomatic treatment. Therefore, for patients with endometritis, it is generally advisable to use medication for symptomatic treatment. The diagnosis of endometritis is usually confirmed through curettage, which can reveal signs of inflammation, or gynecologically through consultation and symptoms. Thus, for patients with endometritis, it is recommended to use medications for anti-inflammatory purposes and symptomatic treatment. Moxibustion can still be useful for regulating some menstrual issues.

Should you have sexual intercourse during endometritis?

During periods of endometritis or while treating endometritis and pelvic inflammatory disease, it is not permissible to engage in sexual activity. The stimulation from sexual activity can exacerbate the inflammation or cause it to spread, increasing the likelihood of chronic pelvic pain, worsening inflammation, causing fever, or other severe consequences. Therefore, it is crucial to not only discover and treat these conditions promptly but also to avoid fatigue and sexual activity during treatment. Generally, this is only temporary, and it is important to exercise self-control.

Does endometritis cause abdominal pain?

When women suffer from endometritis, they often experience abdominal pain. Endometritis is generally caused by the disruption of the protective function of the female reproductive tract during childbirth or uterine cavity operations, leading to the invasion of pathogens into the reproductive tract and resulting in inflammation of the endometrial lining. Clinically, endometritis is characterized by congestive necrosis of the endometrial lining, with a large amount of purulent secretions in the vagina accompanied by an odor. Therefore, endometritis often involves toe bone pain under these circumstances, and it is important to promptly visit a hospital for examination and treatment.
