Patient's question:
In recent months, I've been feeling lower back pain, overall weakness, cold sensitivity, and having a lot of white discharge that is thick and sticky. My menstrual cycle is irregular, and each period contains blood clots. Intercourse is extremely painful. I went to the hospital for a thorough examination and was diagnosed with cervical hypertrophy.What kind of assistance is needed: What are the late symptoms of cervical hypertrophy?
Doctor's answer:
Due to the fibrosis of connective tissue and inflammation spreading along the paracervical area or through the uterosacral ligaments into the pelvic cavity, patients often complain of lower back and sacral pain or a sense of fullness and pressure in the perineum, which are two prominent symptoms of cervical hypertrophy. Cervical hypertrophy is a type of chronic cervical inflammation. 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.
