Inflammation of the lining of the uterus.<\/p>\n
Acute or chronic inflammation of the endometrium, usually caused by bacterial infection and most commonly occurring after childbirth, abortion, or the fitting of an intrauterine device (lUD). Symptoms include fever, abdominal pain, enlargement of the uterus, and vaginal discharge (often foul-smelling). Treatment includes antibiotics and rest; untreated, endometritis may lead to blockage of the fallopian tubes and resultant ectopic pregnancy or infertility.<\/p>\n
An inflammation of the endometrium, the lining of the uterus. Post-partum endometritis is a bacterial infection that typically develops in a woman several days after giving birth. It is the most common infection seen just after childbirth. But it may also be seen after other procedures in which the uterine cavity has been penetrated, such as a D and E, a D AND C, or a hysteroscopy. Symptoms include fever, tenderness of the uterus, and tachycardia (an accelerated heart rate). Treatment includes bed rest, fluids given by mouth and by intravenous drip, and antibiotics.<\/p>\n
Inflammation of the membrane lining the womb (endometrium). The condition, sometimes restricted to the neck of the womb, is a reaction to bacterial attack upon the membrane, possibly following physical damage. Ulcers may form and the membrane may be cast off. There may also be excessive menstrual bleeding and pain in the lower regions of the back and abdomen. Decidual endometritis occurs during pregnancy; puerperal endometritis is an acute form developing immediately after childbirth.<\/p>\n
Inflammation of the lining of the uterus. Organisms may migrate through the cervical canal along mucosal surfaces, piggyback on sperm, or be carried on tampons or intrauterine devices. The inflammation may be acute, subacute, or chronic. The disorder is most common among females of childbearing age. The woman is at highest risk for endometritis during the immediate postpartum period. Endometritis that is not associated with pregnancy may result from pelvic inflammatory disease or invasive gynecologic procedures.<\/p>\n
A state of inflammation affecting the endometrium, the mucous membrane encompassing the uterine cavity.<\/p>\n
Endometritis is a condition characterized by the inflammation of the endometrium, which is the inner lining of the uterus. This inflammation usually arises from an infection. Endometritis is commonly seen in cases of pelvic inflammatory disease (PID). It may also develop as a complication following an abortion or childbirth, after the insertion of an intrauterine device (IUD), or due to a sexually transmitted infection.<\/p>\n
