Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

My wife is not getting pregnant, so the doctor advised us to go for a biopsy. The report's impression is that histological features suggest proliferative phase endometrium with chronic endometritis. What does it mean, and can it be cured?

Thank you.

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I understand your concern.

Please send me detailed gynecology, medical, drug, and obstetric history.

I have seen her report (attachment removed to protect the patient's identity), which shows few infectious cells, and the rest of the report is alright. Both of you must take a few health tips and precautions, and if there is no benefit, then go for investigations and treatment accordingly.

I suggest you quit recreational drugs if you have been taking them, as these reduce fertility and can cause fetal anomalies.

  1. Take Folic acid 0.4 mg daily if she does not have any chronic health issues like diabetes or thyroid, or epilepsy.
  2. Have sex in the fertile period of her cycle.
  3. Have daily walk, exercise, and maintain BMI (body mass index) and normal weight.
  4. Have food with less oil, spices, and sugar with plenty of water, fruits, and vegetables.

If, after following the above-mentioned steps for six months, she is unable to conceive, it is better to have a transvaginal scan and blood tests and discuss them here or with a gynecologist.

I hope this information will help.

Thank you.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
