Patient's question:
Last month, when I had sex with my girlfriend, her menstrual period had not fully healed. This month, her menstrual period has been continuous, and she has been constantly feeling itchy in her external genital area. She has been going to the toilet very frequently. After a thorough examination, it was said that she had cervical erosion. Does cervical erosion cause infertility?Doctor's answer:
Generally speaking, cervical erosion does not usually cause infertility, which is certain. However, her symptoms do not resemble cervical erosion. If there is a case of frequent urination, the possibility of a urinary tract infection is relatively higher. Vulvar itching is generally considered to be caused by vaginitis. If she did not revisit a formal hospital for follow-up at that time, it is recommended to undergo further detailed examination in a formal hospital. Cervical erosion is a gynecological disease that is prone to occur. During medication, women need to pay attention to their own care, especially in terms of hygiene. It is advised that the patient pay close attention to maintaining vulvar cleanliness and changing underwear frequently. Wishing the female patient a speedy recovery!
