Can cervical erosion be removed with an IUD?

Patient's question:

Cervical erosion is not a big problem, lower back pain is not related to gynecological issues. I have excessive discharge with color, which is due to the stimulation from the IUD. It has been like this since my first period after getting the IUD. Now I want to remove the IUD. Can I remove the IUD with cervical erosion?

Doctor's answer:

Cervical erosion does not affect IUD removal, and IUD removal does not worsen cervical erosion; these two factors have no direct correlation. Simple cervical erosion does not affect the body, but an annual cervical cancer screening is recommended, including a cervical TCT test and an HPV virus test. The combined screening of these two tests is known as a cervical cancer screening. As long as the cervical cancer screening results are normal, simple cervical erosion does not need to be concerned about.
