Patient's question:
A friend's family member recently contracted a disease called cervical erosion. What is this disease? What are the initial symptoms?Doctor's answer:
Cervical erosion is a common gynecological disease. The initial symptoms of cervical erosion include an increase in leukorrhea, a yellowish color, thick consistency with a foul odor, and itching of the external genitalia. At times, it may cause contact bleeding during masturbation or irregular vaginal bleeding, as well as urinary frequency. It is advisable to visit a hospital for a colposcopy examination for diagnosis and treatment. Cervical erosion is a common perinatal disease in women and poses serious risks. It not only harms women's physical health but also leads to infertility. Moreover, if severe cervical erosion is not treated promptly, it may develop into precancerous lesions or cervical cancer. This should be taken seriously.
