Does cervical inflammation affect pregnancy?

Patient's question:

Pregnant for three months, had a miscarriage, and have been experiencing lower abdominal pain ever since. The doctor examined and said there is cervical inflammation. The duration of this episode and its persistence: 30 days. Current general condition: pain on the left side of the lower abdomen. Medical history: none. Previous diagnosis, treatment, and outcomes: second D&C, one week ago. Ultrasound examination: endometrial line combined with 4MM. Additional tests: none. Other: I want to know if the inflammation could lead to fallopian tube blockage and if it will affect future fertility.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, it is possible! You can have a tubal patency test to check it. Right now, the priority is to actively treat cervical inflammation!
Western medicine treatment: Always maintain external genital hygiene, frequently use a 1:5000 potassium permanganate solution for sitz baths, change underwear frequently, and temporarily strictly prohibit sexual intercourse and tub baths after medication. For those with excessive mucus, a 3%–4% soda solution can be used for cleaning. Alternatively, 5% potassium dichromate or 20%–40% silver nitrate can be used.
Physical therapy: Methods such as electrocautery, cryotherapy, laser, and microwave therapy.
