Patient's question:
I am 44 years old this year. Two days ago, during a health check-up, it was found that I have cervical hypertrophy. I haven't felt any discomfort myself. After giving birth, the doctor mentioned that there were previous treatment records and outcomes: this time's thorough examination still indicated cervical hypertrophy. Sometimes there is a slight amount of leukorrhea with a faint odor, and the cleanliness of the leukorrhea is rated as III degree. What kind of assistance is needed: How should cervical hypertrophy be treated?Doctor's answer:
The causes of cervical hypertrophy include:(1) Chronic inflammation for a long time, leading to congestion and edema of the cervix, and the repeated fibrosis of cervical glands and stroma, resulting in varying degrees of cervical hypertrophy.
(2) Mucus retention may occur in the deep part of the cervical glands, forming cysts of varying sizes, which can cause the cervix to become hypertrophic.
Cervical hypertrophy generally does not require treatment. If there is erosion, cervical erosion can be treated. In daily life, eat more green vegetables, such as carrots, green leafy vegetables, etc. Eat more fruits rich in water content: oranges, watermelons, peaches, etc.
