Can endometrial tuberculosis be transmitted to the husband?

Endometrial tuberculosis is a common gynecological disease that seriously threatens the health and life of women. Many women do not know much about this gynecological disease. In order to let more women have a correct understanding of endometrial tuberculosis, I will explain to you about the transmission of endometrial tuberculosis.

What causes endometrial tuberculosis?

1. If female friends have long-term salpingo-oophoritis or severe cervicitis, these diseases can lead to chronic endometrial tuberculosis. The above gynecological diseases are also one of the possible causes of endometrial tuberculosis.

2. Contraceptive rings. Female friends should be aware that if the contraceptive rings are worn improperly or without paying attention to hygiene, it can cause chronic endometrial tuberculosis. Therefore, female friends should wear them correctly when using contraceptive rings and not buy inferior ones.

3. The pathogens of endometrial tuberculosis are mostly caused by bacteria that parasitize the vagina and cervix. The most common ones are streptococci, staphylococci, Escherichia coli, gonococci, chlamydia, mycoplasma, anaerobic bacteria, etc. These bacteria can break through the defense mechanism of women's cervix and invade the endometrium to cause acute inflammation.

4. If there is a small amount of placenta left after childbirth or the placenta attachment surface is not healed well enough, it may cause endometrial tuberculosis. Most cases of acute endometrial tuberculosis are closely related to pregnancy, such as puerperal infection and infectiousness, and these two types of infection are often the most serious typical cases of endometrial tuberculosis.

5. Although the endometrium is shed periodically, its basal layer does not shed with it. Once the basal layer is chronically inflamed, it can infect the functional layer of the endometrium for a long time, leading to chronic endometrial tuberculosis. Bacterial invasion during intrauterine surgery and placement of intrauterine contraceptive devices is also prone to infection. Necrotic endometrial polyps, submucosal uterine fibroids or endometrium may also lead to acute endometrial tuberculosis.

Endometrial tuberculosis is not contagious. This is all the relevant knowledge about endometrial tuberculosis that I have explained. I hope that female friends can correctly understand endometrial tuberculosis through the above reading. At the same time, they should also pay enough attention to endometrial tuberculosis to avoid aggravating the disease and endangering the health of patients.
