Situation: A female patient complained of lower abdominal pain, fever and had uterine tenderness on bimanual palpation.
Reaction: Oh my God! You should do cervical swabs and consider starting antibiotics.
Lesson: Make sure to remember that women with such symptoms may have endometritis, which requires prompt diagnosis. It may respond to doxycycline and metronidazole.
