Patient's question:
Online doctor, I am a moderate cervical erosion patient. Once during sexual intercourse, my skin broke. Later, I went to the hospital for a thorough examination. The doctor said it might be because my period is about to come. However, I still feel a bit uneasy. In my case, should I still go to the hospital for a detailed examination?Doctor's answer:
Cervical erosion is actually a regression of columnar epithelium, not a true in the strict sense. Generally, it is necessary to have cervical liquid-based cytology monitoring data and human papillomavirus (HPV) monitoring data to rule out precancerous lesions of the cervix and infection with high-risk HPV. If there are no issues, no treatment is needed, and irregular screening is sufficient. For symptomatic chronic cervical inflammation, physical treatment methods such as laser or cryotherapy should be adopted.In addition, during the treatment of cervical erosion, besides symptomatic treatment, the patient's dietary condition and psychological state are also particularly important. Patients must avoid excessive mental stress and anxiety.
