Patient's question:
In recent months, I've been experiencing severe lower back pain, cold hands and feet, irregular menstruation, excessive white discharge that is thick and sticky with a strong odor, decreased libido, and accompanied by a sense of pain. Sometimes, there is also irregular peeling. I went to the hospital for a thorough examination and was diagnosed with cervical hypertrophy.What kind of assistance is needed: What are the symptoms of cervical hypertrophy?
Doctor's answer:
Increased leukorrhea and increased vaginal discharge are common symptoms of cervical hypertrophy. These symptoms may worsen before and after menstruation, after defecation, and after sexual intercourse. At times, they may also be accompanied by frequent urination, difficulty urinating, menstrual irregularities, and infertility. Therefore, when a woman notices abnormal leukorrhea, she should promptly visit a hospital for a routine leukorrhea examination to detect the condition early. Cervical hypertrophy is a type of chronic cervicitis. It is caused by inflammatory changes in the cervical mucosa due to the transmission of pathogens. The pathogens that can cause cervical hypertrophy include mycoplasma, chlamydia, bacteria, and viruses. It is recommended to have a cervical secretion examination at the gynecology department of the hospital. Based on the examination results, symptomatic treatment should be provided.
