Patient's question:
I went to the hospital for a gynecological examination. The detailed examination revealed cervical erosion of degree II and tested positive for HPV, indicating high-risk HPV 16 infection. However, the TCT test results showed no issues. So, I want to know, in my case, do I still need to undergo further cervical biopsy?Doctor's answer:
HPV virus, also known as high-risk human papillomavirus, type 16. If this condition occurs again, it can lead to cervical lesions, such as cervical cancer. In addition, it can also lead to the recurrence of penile cancer. Currently, if infection is confirmed, a tCT result is necessary. If there are no issues, regular follow-up tests are required, but antiviral medication is also needed to completely eliminate the pathogen. For patients with cervical erosion, in addition to timely treatment, they also need to pay attention to maintaining a good mood in daily life, as a positive attitude is very helpful for the complete recovery from the disease!
