Patient's question:
My wife currently has cervical erosion. The doctor at the hospital suggested that my wife have surgery, but I'm worried about the risks involved. After all, it's only mild cervical erosion. Hello, is it necessary to have a LEEP surgery for mild cervical erosion?Doctor's answer:
Dear Inquirer,It is a pleasure to clarify your concerns. Regarding your condition, having had cervical erosion in the past, it is generally not necessary to undergo a LEEP (Loop Electrosurgical Excision Procedure) surgery.
First, a cervical screening must be performed to confirm cervical erosion. If the screening results are normal, cervical erosion can be treated with medication. If you experience persistent increases in leukorrhea (vaginal discharge) with an odor, you can take oral anti-inflammatory tablets and use Baofukang suppositories externally.
It is recommended to have an annual follow-up examination.
