Patient's question:
Doctor. I am currently experiencing moderate cervical erosion. The doctor at the hospital recommended that I have surgery, but I feel the surgery costs are too high, so I was wondering if conservative treatment is possible. Doctor, is surgery necessary for moderate cervical erosion?Doctor's answer:
Changes in cervical erosion-like symptoms do not require a standard for treatment. Currently, cervical erosion is not considered a disease but merely a symptom. Physiological erosion typically occurs in women during puberty, pregnancy, or those taking birth control pills due to high estrogen levels. These cases do not require treatment if there are no other discomforting symptoms. However, if the erosion is accompanied by an increase in continuous secretions and contact bleeding, treatment is necessary.
