Patient's question:
Does a TCT test increase the condition of cervical erosion after being carefully checked? Yesterday, I went for a follow-up test to see if the cervical erosion had healed. The doctor who performed the TCT test said they would not look at cervical erosion and told me to wait and see a different doctor later. Another doctor then told me it was already less than degree 1. Is it truly in complete recovery, or does the TCT test actually increase the likelihood of cervical erosion?Doctor's answer:
TCT is only used for screening cervical cancer in women and can also detect some precancerous lesions and microbial infections, but it does not have a therapeutic effect. Cervical erosion is mostly a manifestation of chronic cervical inflammation, and it can naturally improve as the chronic inflammation subsides. It is recommended to pay attention to sexual hygiene, take contraceptive measures, and reduce the risk of miscarriage. Cervical erosion has a significant impact on patients. Once symptoms are detected, it is important to seek medical attention promptly, while also paying close attention to dietary issues, with a focus on light and nutritious foods.
