Metritis means - 'inflammation in the uterus'

'Itis' means inflammation, 'Metra' is Greek for uterus or womb, 'Pyo is Greek for pus

So Pyometra means 'pus in the uterus'

Pyometra can occur subsequent to metritis, or spontaneously, and is a life threatening condition.

Metritis is inflammation of the uterine wall while pyometra is purulent material (pus) within the uterus. While both are often caused by bacterial infections, metritis involves the layers of the uterus while a pyometra can be confined to just the empty space surrounded by the uterus.

metr/o = uterus

itis = inflammation

so the answer is: metritis

Salpingitis is inflammation of the fallopian tubes. Salpingitis is one variation of pelvic inflammatory diseade. Other manifestations can include metritis, endometrititis, or peritonitis.
