Patient's question:
Doctor, I am 32 years old this year, female. I recently found out that I have a gynecological disease, and I feel very surprised because I am usually very careful about personal hygiene. I have severe cervical erosion, so I want to ask if severe cervical erosion affects fertility?Doctor's answer:
Cervical erosion is mainly characterized by increased leukorrhea and a bad odor. It can be carefully examined on the cervix through a normal gynecological examination. It is caused by the downward shift of squamous epithelium, leading to redness on the surface of the cervix. This requires timely treatment, which can be achieved through medication applied vaginally. Considering that you currently have severe cervical erosion, it is recommended that you opt for physical therapy methods such as laser or microwave treatment. Generally, this does not affect future fertility for the patient.
