Patient's question:
Female, 52 years old. I went through menopause two years ago, but recently I've been experiencing severe itching in the external genitalia and around the vaginal opening, and the discharge also has a strong odor. Please ask: What are the factors that cause cervical erosion?Doctor's answer:
Hello, according to the situation you described, there is currently a phenomenon of cervical erosion. This is related to the hormonal levels in the body, specifically caused by chronic inflammation. Currently, it can be treated through medication administered vaginally or physical therapy. Regular check-ups at the hospital for cervical TCT and HPV tests are necessary. Additionally, pay attention to keeping the external genital area clean and wash daily. Cervical erosion is a gynecological condition that is prone to recurrence. During medication, women should pay close attention to their self-care, especially in terms of hygiene. It is recommended that patients pay more attention to the cleanliness of the vaginal area, with a diet that is light and simple. Finally, we wish female patients a speedy recovery!
