Patient's question:
I previously had cervical erosion. After I had the LEEP procedure for cervical erosion, will it affect fertility? I just got married and am preparing to conceive. I'm worried about potential impacts. Besides the surgery, what should I pay attention to for a quicker recovery?Doctor's answer:
Cervical erosion does not usually require treatment, and if scarring occurs after surgery, it may affect fertility. However, if the wound heals well, the impact is not very significant. After undergoing a cervical conization surgery, sexual intercourse should be avoided for three months. If sexual activity is resumed too early, it may easily lead to inflammation, unhealed wounds, and infection, resulting in serious consequences. Patients should actively adopt treatment measures and not avoid seeking medical attention. If cervical erosion does not improve with treatment, the treatment plan should be adjusted promptly.
