Patient's question:
I am quite careful about my private life. I usually change my underwear every day, but recently my vaginal discharge has been more frequent and the shape seems different from before. I had an HPV test, and it said I have cervical erosion. What are the causes of cervical erosion?Doctor's answer:
The cause of cervical erosion is due to long-term inflammatory infection of the cervix. For example, conditions like pelvic inflammatory disease or vaginal infections can lead to an increase in leukorrhea. If left untreated, it can spread to cervical erosion. If cervical erosion is diagnosed, timely treatment is necessary, which can include surgical procedures, physical therapy, local medication, or oral anti-inflammatory drugs. During treatment, sexual intercourse must be strictly prohibited. Maintain a healthy diet and avoid spicy and irritating foods. Pay attention to the cleanliness and hygiene of the external genitalia.
