Is it suitable to have surgery for cervical erosion?

Patient's question:

Female, 44 years old, has been feeling unwell for a while. She has been experiencing frequent vaginal discharge and the frequency is increasing. The discharge is also smelly. She underwent a TCT test and found that she has cervical erosion. Is it suitable to have surgery for cervical erosion?

Doctor's answer:

According to the situation you described, the cervical erosion is caused by an increase in estrogen excretion or bacterial rampant. It is recommended to go to a formal hospital for a detailed and thorough examination to diagnose the degree of cervical erosion. For mild cervical erosion patients, antibiotic treatment can be used to eliminate inflammation. Moderate to severe patients can undergo cryotherapy or laser ablation to destroy the columnar epithelium in the eroded areas and promote the growth of new epithelium. During the treatment period, the patient's dietary condition and care are also very important. The patient must pay attention to rest and can engage in appropriate activities to avoid unnecessary harm.
