Patient's question:
Hello! I went to the hospital for a check-up, and the doctor said I have cervical erosion, which is quite severe. I'm 25 years old, unmarried, and haven't been pregnant yet. The doctor prescribed medication for me, and the nurses at the hospital helped me apply it. The doctor said the treatment takes a long time, and the effectiveness depends on the individual. Today, I searched for information online and found that medication is only effective for mild cervical erosion. Severe cases are better treated with physical therapy, which might affect future fertility. However, I still want to have children. What should I do? As for the tests, I've already had a vaginal ultrasound and a cervical cancer check, and both came back normal—just the cervical erosion is severe.Doctor's answer:
Hello, cervical erosion is a common and frequently occurring disease among women with sexual activity. It is a manifestation of chronic cervical inflammation. It is recommended to visit a local public and regular hospital for a cervical cytology examination. If the cervical cytology examination only shows simple inflammation, vaginal suppositories are recommended for treatment. Oral medication is less effective. Laser and microwave physical therapy may be necessary if needed. Generally, physical therapy is not recommended for women who do not plan to have children. Wishing the patient a speedy recovery and good health!
