Patient's question:
I've had my baby for four and a half months, and I've been experiencing a very small amount of peeling. At first, a thorough examination revealed residues, so I took some medication. After a follow-up check, it disappeared. However, there's still a tiny bit of peeling that hasn't cleared up. I took three boxes of Huantong tablets, but it didn't work. A more detailed examination revealed cervical erosion, which seems to have been treated with laser. It's been four days now, and there's a slight increase in peeling compared to before. Is this normal? It looks like menstrual blood, but I'm not even sure if I've had my period in these four months! How is cervical erosion treated?Doctor's answer:
First, cervical erosion is a chronic cervicitis. It is generally classified into mild, moderate, and severe degrees based on the size of the erosion. Oral medications can be considered for mild to moderate erosion, while physical treatment is required for two or three degrees of erosion. For severe cases, surgery may need to be performed because its three-degree erosion may lead to cancer. Therefore, it is recommended that you go to a regular hospital for relevant examinations to identify the cause before targeted treatment, in order to avoid missing the opportunity to treat the condition and interfere with future sexual life between couples.
