Patient's question:
Female, 36 years old, recently discovered during a hospital check-up that she had cervical erosion of degree II. She is a bit worried, as it is said that this can be treated. She wants to ask if surgical treatment is necessary for cervical erosion.Doctor's answer:
When cervical erosion occurs, especially moderate to severe cervical erosion, symptoms such as increased leukorrhea, thick discharge, occasional purulent or bloody leukorrhea may appear. Back pain, abdominal pain, and a heavy feeling in the lower abdomen often follow. It may also cause contact bleeding during sexual activity. It is recommended to undergo "LEEP" (Loop Electrosurgical Excision Procedure), which is a new diagnostic and treatment technology for cervical diseases developed in recent years. Postoperative fertility is not affected. Additionally, in daily life, patients should maintain a balanced nutritional intake, engage in aerobic exercises to strengthen their bodies, and keep a positive mood to enhance their physical condition and accelerate recovery.
