What is the treatment for infection of the uterine lining after childbirth?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: If there is tissue remaining in the uterus a dilation and curettage may be needed. Other than that the mainstay to treatment would be antibiotics of course. The type and route of antibiotics would depend upon specifics of the situation.
