Patient's question:
I have recently become pregnant and have been experiencing severe itching. I went to the gynecology department for a thorough examination, and they said I have severe cervical erosion and a positive HPV test. I am very worried and would like to ask the doctor, what should I do about severe cervical erosion and a positive HPV test? Who can help me clarify this issue? Thank you very much!Doctor's answer:
HPV, which stands for Human Papillomavirus, requires the exclusion of tCT during cervical erosion-related tests to rule out abnormal cell changes in the cervix. If the results are normal, there is generally no major issue, but the main concern is the risk of tumor diseases, as high-risk subtypes carry a higher infection risk. Low-risk subtypes, such as genital warts, are primarily infectious and pose no significant other problems. In fact, having cervical erosion is not something to be feared. Patients should believe in their ability to overcome the illness. As long as treatment is administered promptly in the early stages, the chances of stabilizing the condition and recovering are very high.
