What are the effects of not treating cervical erosion?

Patient's question:

I have had a lot of white discharge from my lower body for the past two months, which is a bit darker yellow, and I feel it's not normal. Some people say it's cervical erosion! What is cervical erosion? What are the consequences if it's not treated? It doesn't have a very strong smell now, but I'm also very worried that it will continue to worsen, and then I won't be able to care about it anymore.

Doctor's answer:

The yellowish white discharge suggests you may have a vaginal infection. You can treat it with Bao Fu Kang or Nifuratel inserted vaginally.
Cervical erosion is often caused by untreated vaginal infections or cervical inflammation. Long-term irritation from inflammatory discharge can erode the cervix, leading to cervical erosion. You should visit a gynecology department for a colposcopy to determine the degree of cervical erosion. Mild erosion doesn’t require treatment, but moderate to severe erosion may need LEEP surgery.
