What causes endometrial tuberculosis?

Endometrial tuberculosis can affect women's physical and mental health, so women should take it seriously and not let the condition worsen. Next, I will introduce to you the causes of endometrial tuberculosis and see what daily factors can lead to the occurrence of endometrial tuberculosis.

Irregular intrauterine surgery: incomplete infection, premature rupture of membranes during delivery, or placenta and lochia remaining in the uterine cavity after delivery; irregular intrauterine surgery; poorly disinfected gynecological examinations, etc., can lead to pathogens in the vagina and cervical canal, ascending infection and endometrial tuberculosis;

Not paying attention to menstrual hygiene: Not paying attention to keeping the vulva clean during menstruation or performing minor surgeries in the uterine cavity; or performing vaginal examinations during menstruation without strict disinfection, etc., can all allow external pathogens to take the opportunity to invade. Sexual intercourse during menstruation and heterosexual intercourse with people with sexually transmitted diseases are also prone to this disease;

Uterine cavity lesions: such as long-term uterine bleeding, endometrial polyps, submucosal muscles, etc. The endometrium covering their surface is prone to infection and causes endometrial tuberculosis. Combined with internal medicine diseases, such as anemia, chronic wasting diseases, etc., the disease is more likely to occur when the body's resistance is reduced;

Changes in hormone levels in the body: Elderly women are more likely to develop senile vaginal tuberculosis, which further develops into endometrial tuberculosis, due to a decrease in estrogen levels, decreased vaginal acidity and a decrease in cervical mucus plugs.

Regarding the causes of endometrial tuberculosis, experts point out that endometrial tuberculosis is mostly caused by infection with pathogenic bacteria. Correct treatment is the only way. Otherwise, endometrial tuberculosis will cause lesions and cause great harm. Therefore, everyone must pay active attention to the causes of endometrial tuberculosis.
