Does moderate cervical erosion require surgery for repair?

Patient's question:

Female, 38 years old, recently feeling uncomfortable all over her body, with severe lower back and back pain. She also has a lot of white discharge, which is thin and has a foul odor. She is very concerned and asks if moderate cervical erosion requires surgery for repair?

Doctor's answer:

Prevention of cervical erosion first requires attention to cleanliness during daily sexual life, excluding periods. If there is post-coital bleeding, it is necessary to undergo a cervical liquid-based cell test. Additionally, an HPV test must be performed to rule out cervical lesions before considering medication. The effectiveness of medication varies from person to person. If medication is ineffective, surgical treatment should be considered. Surgical treatment involves a loop electrosurgical excision procedure (LEEP) under the LEEP.
