Patient's question:
Can mild cervical erosion be treated with emergency contraception pills? Additional question: "Treating with medication may be costly, time-consuming, and require a lot of effort. For moderate to severe erosion, clinical experience suggests treatment may take 2-3 months. Some people with good responses may recover quickly, while others may need longer." This is what you answered online. Can medication really cure it?Doctor's answer:
Hello: When considering cervical erosion, the squamous epithelium covering the vaginal part of the cervix undergoes necrosis and detachment, forming superficial defects, which are referred to as true erosion and are less common. However, the cervical erosion commonly seen in clinical practice actually refers to the proliferation of cervical tubal columnar epithelium after previous epithelial damage, extending into the defect of the squamous epithelium in the vaginal part of the cervix to cover the wound and replace the original squamous epithelial defect area. Since the columnar epithelium is thinner, the congested capillaries beneath the mucosa are clearly visible. Surgery should not cause dysmenorrhea. It is recommended that you go to the hospital for relevant examinations. Wishing you good health.
