Patient's question:
I'm only 36 years old this year, just had my second child, and I'm still in the postpartum period. But I noticed that this month my period is a bit abnormal—only lasted for one day and then stopped. After that, I had some white discharge and a strong odor. I went to the hospital for a thorough check-up, and the doctor said it's moderate chronic cervical inflammation. I'd like to ask how to deal with moderate chronic cervical inflammation?Doctor's answer:
I'm glad to help you with your question. At the age of 36, having just given birth to your second child, this so-called moderate cervical inflammation should not be treated for now. You can wait until after one year postpartum, when your child is weaned, and the entire hormonal levels in your body have fully returned to normal. Then, you can have a follow-up examination of the cervix and check cervical liquid-based cytology. If there are no issues, and if it is still moderate erosion, you can consider treatments such as the LEEP procedure or laser therapy. For patients with chronic cervical inflammation, in addition to oral medication, it is also important to pay attention to self-care. During treatment, hygiene should be noted, and the private area should always be kept clean. It is also necessary to remind female patients to have regular follow-up examinations!
