Patient's question:
Actually, it's usually okay, but I get sick every time after my period. The specific symptoms are itching in the private area and a heavy, painful feeling in the lower abdomen. Is this a sign of inflammation? Also, what are the dangers of blindly treating cervical erosion?Doctor's answer:
Hello, the hazards of untreated cervical erosion:1. Causes infertility: During cervical erosion, cervical secretions increase significantly and become more viscous, interfering with sperm motility and hindering sperm from entering the uterine cavity. This reduces the chances of sperm and egg combination, leading to female infertility.
2. Causes cervical cancer: Although cervical erosion is a benign disease caused by inflammation, a small number of patients may develop cervical intraepithelial neoplasia or even cervical cancer. Cervical erosion is a manifestation of chronic cervical inflammation and is classified into mild, moderate, and severe degrees. In the early stages of mild erosion, symptoms are often subtle and easily overlooked. However, if left untreated, it can progress to severe cervical erosion.
