Patient's question:
I was carefully examined in the hospital and diagnosed with uterine hypertrophy. Could you please explain why I got this disease, what I should pay attention to in daily life, and how to alleviate the symptoms?Doctor's answer:
Physical therapy is suitable for moderate and severe erosion, and it is currently the most effective and shortest-course method, generally requiring only one session for recovery.1. Electrocautery: The cautery tip is applied to the eroded surface to cause tissue coagulation, forming a scab. After about two weeks, the scab begins to shed, and the wound typically takes 6 to 8 weeks to heal. The procedure should be performed 3 to 5 days after the menstrual period. It is contraindicated in cases of adnexal inflammation. After treatment, leukorrhea may temporarily increase or there may be peeling. If peeling is significant, sterile gauze can be used to control medication application, and it should be removed after 24 hours. The disadvantage is that scarring may sometimes lead to cervical stenosis.
2. Cryotherapy: A liquid nitrogen rapid cooling device is used to place the applicator on the eroded surface for 1 to 3 minutes. After natural rewarming, the applicator is removed, causing the inflamed tissue to freeze and necrose.
