Patient's question:
A colleague of mine has cervical inflammation. She had been treated for it before, but it wasn't fully cured. Later, she became pregnant and stopped taking medication. She is now more than 8 months pregnant. She is afraid of having a cesarean section and plans to have a natural birth, but she is worried that the cervical inflammation might affect the natural birth.Doctor's answer:
She can go to the hospital for a check-up to see the size of the baby. If the baby is not too large, a natural birth may be possible. However, if the baby is very large, a natural birth can easily cause cervical laceration, which may lead to retrograde infection. Therefore, it is essential to make a careful decision.The occurrence of acute cervical inflammation not only affects the patient's health but also leads to gynecological diseases. It is best to go to the gynecology department of the hospital for a vaginal discharge test to identify the cause and receive targeted treatment. In daily life, it is important to drink more water and pay attention to personal hygiene.
