Patient's question:
I got married last year. Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried about it affecting my fertility, and I'm also extremely sensitive to cold and coldness. I was told that I have cervicitis. What are the best treatments for cervicitis?Doctor's answer:
Cervicitis is a common disease among women of childbearing age, with two types: acute and chronic. Acute cervicitis often occurs concurrently with acute endometritis or acute vaginitis, but chronic cervicitis is more prevalent. Chronic cervicitis is usually caused by pathogens infiltrating the cervix after childbirth, miscarriage, or surgical injury. Chronic cervicitis has various manifestations, such as cervical erosion, cervical hypertrophy, cervical polyps, and cervical glandular cysts, with cervical erosion being the most common.Pay attention to cleanliness during sexual activity. Practice good sexual hygiene, moderate sexual activity, and strictly avoid extramarital sex while preventing sexual intercourse during menstruation. Timely and effective use of contraception can reduce the incidence of induced abortion and artificial abortion, thereby minimizing psychological trauma and the risk of bacterial infection.
