Patient's question:
Detailed medical condition and consultation purpose: Can cervical erosion of degree 3 be treated with microwave therapy? Will microwave therapy cause infertility? Is microwave therapy better than drug treatment?Doctor's answer:
Hello, some people believe that physical therapy methods for cervical erosion (such as laser) may lead to infertility, which is actually an incorrect viewpoint. Cervical erosion itself can cause infertility and definitely requires treatment. However, if the erosion is severe, using medication for treatment may be costly, time-consuming, and require a lot of effort (if the erosion is moderate to severe, clinical experience shows that treatment typically takes 2 to 3 months; some people with a good response may recover faster, while others may need more time). Therefore, it is recommended for patients with severe cervical erosion who have not yet been able to conceive to adopt physical therapy methods such as laser treatment, as it is fast-acting. When undergoing treatment, it is important to inform the doctor about your fertility goals, ensuring that the procedure is performed superficially to avoid affecting the function of the cervix. Even in cases of cervical adhesion, a simple procedure can resolve the issue.
