Endometritis

Hi,

Has anyone been diagnosed with endometritis and if so what were the antibiotics given? Was it NHS or private?
I previously had it and took part in the Cerm trial with Tommys where I was given either doxycycline or a placebo, I had a repeat biopsy at nhs hospital a while later which showed it had cleared.
They now think I have it again based on symptoms however I am being treated by my nhs hospital this time and they have given me metronidazole and cephalexin 3 times a day for 7 days instead of the doxycycline twice a day for 14 days I had before. The hospital did say the treatment they are giving me does work for endometritis but I’m confused as to why it’s different from the treatment I had before, from everything I’ve read online doxycycline is the first line of treatment for it and if metronidazole is prescribed instead this is normally for 14 days as well.
