Patient's question:
I am 26 years old this year, and I am not married yet. I haven't had any children. Recently, I've been feeling itchy down there, and I also have a lot of white discharge, which is very uncomfortable. After a thorough check-up at the hospital, I found out that I have cervical erosion. Does cervical erosion affect fertility?Doctor's answer:
Cervical erosion does not affect fertility. Cervical erosion is called cervical columnar epithelial regression, which is a normal physiological phenomenon of the cervix. If there are no symptoms, simple cervical erosion does not require treatment. If there is inflammation, a detailed examination through a vaginal smear and colposcopy can be performed to identify the specific cause, followed by symptomatic treatment and medication. During this period, avoid spicy and irritating foods, and refrain from sexual activity.
