Patient's question:
I have an itchy lower body, and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? Is there a connection between cervical erosion and having an IUD?Doctor's answer:
The insertion of an IUD does not cause cervical erosion. Cervical erosion is a type of chronic cervical inflammation, often resulting from the invasion of pathogens after cervical damage due to childbirth, miscarriage, or surgery. Active treatment is required for cervical erosion, and the degree should be determined based on the extent of the erosion to select an appropriate treatment method. If you have cervical erosion, it is recommended to use a tail-free IUD.The occurrence of cervical erosion not only affects a woman's life but also leads to gynecological diseases. Therefore, it is best to visit a gynecology department in the hospital for a vaginal discharge test to identify the cause and receive targeted treatment. In daily life, pay attention to dietary adjustments, consuming light and easily digestible foods, and avoid spicy, irritating, and cold foods.
