Patient's question:
I just had a baby for more than five months. Lately, my gynecological health has been poor, with a bad smell and itching, but the gynecological inflammation has subsided these days. I went to the hospital for a thorough examination, and the doctor said it was cervical inflammation. I was given some medicine to take home, but I am worried that it might be harmful to the baby. So, what should I do if I get cervical inflammation during breastfeeding?Doctor's answer:
In the case of cervical inflammation during lactation, since this stage requires breastfeeding, oral medications have certain limitations. Therefore, in most cases, oral medication treatment is not recommended for cervical inflammation. Clinically, the most common diagnosis for cervical inflammation is cervical erosion. For the treatment of cervical erosion, topical medication treatment can be used, or alternative methods such as microwave or laser therapy can be considered. In addition to symptomatic treatment for cervical inflammation, patients should also pay attention to dietary aspects, such as maintaining a light diet and engaging in regular outdoor activities. At the same time, patients should also pay attention to choosing a reputable hospital for diagnosis to achieve good treatment outcomes.
