Does the surgery for cervical erosion cause infertility?

Patient's question:

A while ago, I went to the hospital for a gynecological examination and found out that I have cervical erosion. After a week of medication, the results were not very effective, so I wanted a faster treatment method. The doctor then suggested surgery. Will surgery for cervical erosion lead to infertility?

Doctor's answer:

Cervical erosion surgery does not cause infertility. However, this surgery still has some impact on the cervix, which may result in the cervix not being able to fully dilate during labor, making it difficult for the baby to come down, and it may require a cesarean section. Compared to this, the probability of a cesarean section would be relatively lower. If you have already been pregnant or are not opposed to a cesarean section in the future, then you can consider the surgery. In addition to timely treatment of cervical erosion.
