Patient's question:
Female, 31 years old, she has been feeling unwell for a while. She has been experiencing occasional vaginal bleeding, which has become more frequent. She also has increased vaginal discharge that smells bad. She underwent a TCT test and found that she has cervical erosion. What are the symptoms of cervical erosion in its early stages?Doctor's answer:
Cervical erosion, if mild, may not cause any symptoms in some people, while others may experience symptoms such as bleeding during sexual activity or purulent leukorrhea. Ovulation period bleeding could be caused by menopause or cervical erosion. As for how cervical erosion occurs, it can be identified after the skin heals by undergoing a gynecological internal examination, and early treatment is recommended. Different causes lead to different symptoms, and patients should seek systematic and standardized examinations at reputable tertiary hospitals as soon as possible to receive targeted treatment. Additionally, patients should maintain a regular schedule, take precautions against cold, eat light and soft foods, ensure good ventilation, and drink plenty of hot water.
