Patient's question:
Hello doctor, I had a thorough examination for cervical erosion of degree II, a bit of pelvic inflammation, odor, itching, and abnormal vaginal discharge, and was prescribed medication! The doctor asked me to get an HPV test when I have time. If all symptoms are gone after finishing the medication, do I still need to do the HPV test?Doctor's answer:
HPV is the English abbreviation for a virus, and this virus has many different serotypes. According to the situation you described, it is still necessary to do an HPV test, because the body infected with HPV may not show any abnormalities. HPV is one of the causes of cervical cancer. In addition to treating cervical erosion, it is recommended that patients pay attention to their diet in daily life and maintain a cheerful mood to enhance their physical fitness and slow down the recovery speed.
