Patient's question:
Female, 33 years old, she has been feeling unwell for a while. She has been experiencing frequent vaginal bleeding, which has become more frequent. Her discharge has also increased and smells unpleasant. She underwent a TCT test and found that she has cervical erosion. Will cervical erosion of degree 1 affect pregnancy?Doctor's answer:
Cervical erosion is often caused by the irritation from sexual activity, so it generally occurs in women who have sexual activity. The main symptoms include increased vaginal discharge, which is thick and mucous or purulent in nature. Pain during intercourse may occur, and sometimes the discharge may contain blood.Recommendation: Mild to moderate cervical erosion can be treated conservatively using suppositories. Severe cervical erosion is difficult to treat with medication alone and may require surgical intervention. If left untreated, there is a risk of carcinogenesis.
