Patient's question:
Just had a loop electrosurgical excision procedure (LEEP) a week ago. The detailed examination of the tissue removed showed chronic cervicitis with squamous metaplasia. What does this mean? What does severe cervical erosion mean?Doctor's answer:
Cervical erosion can be cured through standardized and systematic treatment. However, there is a reminder to keep in mind: cervical erosion is most easily treatable in its early stages. The longer the disease persists, the more severe it becomes, and the more complicated the treatment becomes. Generally, 3-4 treatment courses are required, with milder cases needing 2-3 courses, with each course lasting 14 days. It can treat cervical erosion caused by cervicitis and promote wound healing in the cervix. The effect is significant, thereby increasing the likelihood of recurrence. Proper exercise, balanced nutrition, and the use of immune-boosting drugs can be helpful. Pay attention to hygiene during sexual activity. Proper medication is essential, otherwise it may lead to recurrent cervical erosion. Additionally, patients need to maintain a positive mood to avoid worsening the condition.
