Patient's question:
I have experienced irregular menstruation, foul-smelling leukorrhea, increased leukorrhea, and external genital itching again in the past two months. When I went to the hospital for a thorough examination, they said it was cervical erosion grade 1. How long does it take to heal from cervical erosion? Do I need surgery? What are the good treatment methods? Can I have sexual intercourse with cervical erosion grade 1?Doctor's answer:
Cervical erosion does not require treatment and does not affect sexual activity. For cervical erosion, it is recommended that you use warm water to clean the external genitalia every night. After cleaning, wear loose cotton underwear. The underwear should be boiled in hot water and dried separately in the sun. Maintain a healthy and nutritious diet. Eat more fresh vegetables and fruits, and focus on digestive and vitamin-rich foods. Avoid spicy and irritating foods. Exercise moderately and relax your mind. Regular cervical screening tests can be performed as needed.
