Can women with cervical erosion have sexual intercourse?

Patient's question:

Wife went to the hospital for a thorough examination and found cervical erosion. She doesn't let me touch her, can cervical erosion prevent sexual intercourse?

Doctor's answer:

Cervical erosion can be physiological or pathological; this is just a change that occurs. If there are no symptoms, a careful cervical cytology examination may allow for sexual activity. Physiological cervical erosion may occur during the reproductive period, breastfeeding, or while taking oral contraceptives. It is caused by estrogen-induced fibrosis of the mucosa. If there are no symptoms, excessive treatment is not necessary. Maintain good hygiene and undergo regular check-ups. In daily life, it is important to maintain a positive mood. A good mood is very helpful for recovery from the disease.
