What is the probability of cervical cancer with severe cervical erosion?

Patient's question:

My cervical erosion is very severe, it looks very terrifying, so I want to go to the hospital for a thorough examination. I have never been pregnant, and I'm upset that I have cervical cancer. I want to know what the probability is of developing cervical cancer with severe cervical erosion?

Doctor's answer:

Severe cervical erosion does not greatly increase the risk of cervical cancer. It is recommended that you go to the hospital for a thorough examination as soon as possible. Early treatment leads to early recovery. Cervical erosion is not true erosion. When the cervical epithelium peels off and is replaced by another type of cervical epithelium, the new epithelium covering the cervix is thinner, and even blood vessels and red tissue can be seen beneath it, appearing as if it is eroded. It is one of the physiological changes of the cervix and not a pathological change. If there is contact bleeding, it may indicate cervical cancer.
