What to do if there is inflammation after curettage? Active prevention is the key

There are many inflammations that may be caused after uterine curettage, such as pelvic inflammatory disease, adnexitis, acute and chronic pelvic inflammatory disease, endometriosis, etc. At this time, you must pay attention to personal hygiene, do not use unclean sanitary napkins, change sanitary napkins in time, and prohibit sexual intercourse.

1. Inflammation that may occur

1. Pelvic inflammatory disease, adnexitis, acute and chronic pelvic inflammatory disease, endometriosis: irregular menstruation, dysmenorrhea, distension and pain in the lower abdomen on both sides, increased leucorrhea, easy fatigue, elderly patients with a history of the disease will have lack of energy, general discomfort, insomnia, etc., leading to adhesion and occlusion of the fallopian tubes, which can cause infertility.

2. Cervicitis and cervical erosion: yellow purulent leucorrhea, fever and dull pain in the lower abdomen, increased discharge, sometimes bloody or with blood streaks, or with a foul odor, sometimes the uterus is enlarged and tender, and there is continuous pain on both sides of the lower abdomen or in the entire lower abdomen. When the inflammation develops to a severe stage, it can affect the myometrium and become myometritis, and can also cause ascending infection of pathogens.

2. How to prevent inflammation after painless abortion:

1. Conduct a comprehensive gynecological examination before abortion to promptly detect acute and chronic inflammation of the reproductive tract and provide treatment to prevent bacterial ascending infection after abortion or delivery.

2. Pay attention to personal hygiene after abortion, do not use unclean sanitary napkins, change sanitary napkins in time, and refrain from sexual intercourse.

3. Insufficient disinfection during surgery is an important cause of acute endometritis. Therefore, female friends must choose a regular hospital for painless abortion, which is safer.

If endometritis occurs after abortion, if there is suspected placental tissue residue, it should be removed immediately, but it is advisable to gently protrude the residue in the uterine cavity and try not to perform curettage. Curettage can only be performed when a certain dose is reached and the inflammation is under control to prevent the spread of inflammation. If there is active uterine bleeding, the uterine cavity can be cleaned under normal circumstances. For those who have contraceptive devices in their uterus, they should be removed as soon as possible to eliminate the primary lesion and control the spread of inflammation.

Simple acute nonspecific endometritis generally has little effect on fertility after recovery, but in a few people it may cause endometrial adhesions and cause infertility. Because acute endometritis can cause salpingitis and oophoritis, these inflammations may not dissipate for a long time and are chronic processes, which will seriously affect fertility. Tuberculous endometritis can seriously affect reproductive function and is one of the important causes of female infertility, so gynecological inflammation after abortion must be taken seriously.
