Patient's question:
Detailed medical condition and consultation purpose: Whether laser treatment can be used for moderate to severe cervical erosion under the condition of pelvic inflammatory diseaseMedical history: Due to poor fetal development, I underwent a miscarriage at seven months of pregnancy. The miscarriage procedure was performed in March 2005. Before pregnancy, I had cervical erosion. After the miscarriage, pelvic inflammatory disease developed. Since March, when the miscarriage occurred, I have been undergoing treatment, but neither the pelvic inflammatory disease nor the cervical erosion has been fully cured. Currently, I am taking traditional Chinese medicine. In the past week before my menstrual period, I have been experiencing pain in the lower right abdomen. My normal vaginal discharge is purulent and yellow. Recently, I have also noticed some itching in the outer genital area, which was not present before. Previously, I had a vaginal discharge test.
Doctor's answer:
Cervicitis and pelvic inflammatory disease can be treated together. The treatment for pelvic inflammatory disease can be chosen through medication. If the symptoms of cervicitis are relatively mild, medication can be selected. If the inflammation is more severe, it is best to choose physical therapy. It is recommended that you go to the hospital for an examination and then receive symptomatic treatment based on the situation. Never take medication on your own, as this can easily worsen the symptoms and lead to frequent recurrence. Additionally, during the treatment period, it is best to avoid sexual activity and pay attention to hygiene.
