Patient's question:
I had a gynecological examination and was diagnosed with chronic cervicitis and mild cervical erosion. The ultrasound results were normal. How should it be treated?Doctor's answer:
Hello: What needs to be done now is to actively treat your cervical erosion. Some people believe that physical therapy methods for cervical erosion (such as laser) may lead to infertility, but this is actually an incorrect viewpoint. Cervical erosion itself can lead to infertility and definitely requires treatment. However, if the erosion is severe, using medication may be costly, time-consuming, and labor-intensive (if the erosion is moderate to severe, clinical experience shows that treatment typically takes 2 to 3 months; some people with a good response may recover faster, while others may need longer). Therefore, for patients with severe cervical erosion who have not been able to conceive, it is recommended to use physical therapy methods such as laser. This method is fast-acting, and during treatment, it is important to inform the doctor about your fertility needs so that the procedure can be performed more superficially to avoid affecting the function of the cervix. Even if there is cervical adhesion, it can be treated by passing a catheter through it.
