Does cervical erosion be contagious?

Patient's question:

Moderate cervical erosion, had a cervical erosion treatment surgery on December 13th, more than a week has passed. It started leaking yellow fluid on the first day, and in recent days, the amount has increased compared to before. Today, it has a little pinkish color. What kind of help is needed: Is it normal? Could it be contagious? Should I go to the hospital for a follow-up check?

Doctor's answer:

Cervical erosion is caused by chronic cervical inflammation. It can be divided into three degrees of cervical erosion based on the size of the erosion area: first-degree cervical erosion, second-degree cervical erosion, and third-degree cervical erosion. Cervical erosion increases the risk of cervical cancer, but it is not contagious. Pay attention to hygiene and maintain cleanliness. If you have cervical erosion, you should consider going to the hospital for a cervical TCT screening. After ruling out other abnormal lesions, local medication treatment or physical therapy can be considered.
