Postpartum cervical erosion, retroverted uterus: How to recover

Patient's question:

During my three-and-a-half-month follow-up check-up, the doctor said my uterus was slightly enlarged and my cervix had mild erosion, but she didn't prescribe any medication. I'd like to ask the experts what kind of medication I should use for this condition. Is it possible to wait until it becomes moderate before considering surgical treatment? Does sexual activity affect erosion? I don't want to wait until it becomes serious before taking medication. I'd like to start using medication early. Will the medication affect my breast milk? How long will I need to take medication to recover? Please advise the experts on the medication name so I can buy it and use it myself. For a retroverted uterus, how long should I do exercises to help it return to a normal position?

Doctor's answer:

Hello!
Cervicitis is the most common type of reproductive tract inflammation in women, primarily characterized by increased vaginal discharge and a foul odor. Treatment mainly involves local medication in the vagina. Mild cases may not require treatment, and of course, physical therapy can be administered based on the severity of the cervicitis.
Generally, if the discharge is not excessive, medication is sufficient. If it is more severe, physical therapy may be necessary.
Both partners should pay attention to hygiene to prevent infection. You need to regularly visit the hospital for follow-up to prevent the erosion from worsening.
The position of the uterus in the pelvic cavity can be classified as anterior, midline, or posterior. Generally, an anterior uterus has a higher chance of conception, while a posterior uterus has a lower chance. Since you have recently given birth, it may also be related to your sleeping position. In most cases, no special adjustment is needed.
