Patient's question:
Can iodine be applied inside the uterus for the treatment of cervical erosion? Please help me clarify this issue, as I am quite urgent about it because my cervical erosion has now reached a severe stage, and the doctor has asked me to seek treatment promptly. I had a biopsy done recently, and the doctor mentioned there is a possibility of it becoming cancerous.Doctor's answer:
If you have cervical erosion, it's better to have a cervical TCT test first to assess the severity of the condition. Patients with more severe cervical erosion may also need cervical cancer screening and may require a cone biopsy surgical treatment. Mild to moderate cervical erosion can be considered for conservative drug treatment for a period of time. A cone biopsy is a minimally invasive surgery, and recovery is usually complete within 2 weeks after the procedure. For specific details, consult a gynecologist.
