Patient's question:
Does having a menstrual period also benefit the complete recovery of cervical erosion surgery? I've been experiencing lower back pain and fatigue, and my periods are irregular. I've been married for several years but haven't had any children yet. A thorough examination revealed that I have cervical erosion, and I underwent surgery. Shortly after, I had my period. So, I'd like to consult a doctor—is this a good sign?Doctor's answer:
After cervical erosion surgery, it generally does not affect the normal menstrual cycle. Having a menstrual period does not provide any special help for the complete recovery of cervical erosion. After menstruation, it is recommended to pay attention to menstrual hygiene to prevent infection. You can wait for one month after the surgery to go to the hospital for a follow-up check to assess the complete recovery. It is important not to engage in sexual activity too soon after the surgery and to follow the doctor's advice for anti-inflammatory treatment. In addition to timely treatment, patients with cervical erosion should also pay attention to maintaining a good mood in their daily lives, as a positive mood is very helpful for the complete recovery of the disease. Thank you!
