Patient's question:
I was diagnosed with severe cervical erosion last year. I had treated it once, but it was with medication, which didn't work. Moreover, I often have itching down there, along with a strong odor. During sexual intercourse, my skin breaks, and my discharge is also abnormal. How is cervical erosion treated?Doctor's answer:
Cervical erosion requires screening for cervical lesions, and it is recommended to undergo a thorough examination of cervical liquid-based cytology. If there is no inflammation, treatment options such as medication, electrocautery, or LEEP can be considered. Additionally, screening for HPV infection is necessary. If not pregnant, rigorous treatment is still advised as the foundation. During treatment, sexual activity should be avoided, and good health is wished. For severe cases of cervical erosion, it is recommended to seek medical attention as soon as possible and follow the doctor's advice for early treatment. Avoid blindly relying on advertisements for medication to treat the condition, as this may worsen the condition.
