I'm

I'm going to add some info and organize everything. I do want this article to be a little more scientific, but let me know if I make any changes you don't like. Hopefully I will add a picture at some point. -- Joelmills 00:11, 1 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Citations

Can we get more cites in-line, and references, for more statements in this article? Theres nothing especially controversial and everything looks like cites should be easy to find for it, which would make the article well-referenced. FT2 ^{(Talk | email)} 19:55, 5 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, those last few edits were mine. I didn't realize I wasn't logged in. --Joelmills 03:22, 15 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Serious Disease

I just want to tell that this is a very serious infection: My doggy died last night because of Pyometra, but presented none of the symptoms described in the article, since she had a closed Pyometria. I propose adding the warning that the symptoms may not show up if the animal has this type of Pyometria under the Symptoms section, in order to concern the reader more about the severity of this desease. -- Antonioamunt 21:40, 30 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I tried to clarify that in the symptoms section. Thanks for your input and I'm sorry to hear about your dog. -Joelmills 02:43, 31 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks Joelmills for editiong the article. Now it looks more appropriate to the reality. Antonioamunt 14:28, 31 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

hello i would like to add that my dog (english bulldog) has acted strangely, although my dad was in cleveland so my grandma and i took her to the vet and he said that she had it. we had the surgery and the vet said she had the worst looking uterus he has ever seen, so thank god that she made it through. but i am very sorry for your loss :( —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.125.171.115 (talk) 02:12, 27 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Treatment

Hi, I miss informations about medical treatment by Aglepristone (see de:Aglepriston), don't you use it in U.S./U.K.? It's not as dangerous as with Prostaglandines and its success-rate is about 70% in a Pyometra. [1] gx de:User:Kalumet --84.180.118.54 22:37, 1 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not too familiar with that drug. As far as I can tell from a web search, it's not approved for use in the United States. --Joelmills 22:51, 1 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I would like to add, my cat got pyometria, she had open type, however she was eating normaly ,playing and not showing any other signs than just some bleeding one day. Be careful with it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.107.183.109 (talk) 22:01, 27 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Pyometra in humans

Hi, I think the main article for pyometra on wikipedia should be about pyometra in humans. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.217.57.144 (talk) 09:11, 11 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. This page makes it seem as though it is exclusively an animal condition... — Guillaume Pelletier ~ 14:11, 9 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Perhaps it would be useful to create different sections with the focus on humans, cats, dogs, etc. And to leave the introduction as general as possible. Jennes83 (talk) 22:22, 9 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
