Patient's question:
Please ask the doctor what are the good treatments for severe cervical erosion. I haven't had children yet and am planning to have a child. I'm very anxious and hope there is a fast and effective treatment. Thank you!Medical history and treatment outcomes: When the cervical erosion was mild, the doctor said it could be left untreated and treated after giving birth. When it became moderate, I used some suppositories, but the effect wasn't significant, and it returned to mild, so I didn't treat it again. But now it has suddenly worsened to severe, and I'm very scared.
Doctor's answer:
Cervical erosion is a common gynecological disease, with causes including mechanical irritation or injury such as sexual activity, miscarriage, and lacerations during childbirth, as well as bacterial invasion leading to cervical inflammation. In mild cervical erosion, patients generally have no obvious symptoms. They may only experience a slight increase in leukorrhea, which is often easily overlooked. Many patients with cervical erosion are discovered during routine check-ups or when seeking treatment for other gynecological conditions.Moderate to severe cervical erosion patients exhibit the most prominent symptom of increased leukorrhea, which is yellow, viscous, or mixed with blood streaks. In some cases, post-coital bleeding may occur. Long-term stimulation of the external genitalia by inflammatory leukorrhea can also lead to vulvar pruritus. Additionally, since the cervical lymphatic vessels directly communicate with the parametrial connective tissue, inflammation can spread to the pelvic cavity through the lymphatic system, causing parametritis and symptoms such as lower back and sacral pain, as well as lower abdominal discomfort. In some cases, infertility may also be caused by cervical erosion.$(CRLF)
For moderate to severe cervical erosion, physical therapy is generally the preferred treatment, such as laser, microwave, BOM light, red light, LEEP, etc. It is recommended that you visit a hospital and consult a doctor to choose a treatment method suitable for you. After surgery, sexual activity, tub baths, and personal hygiene should be avoided. Rest, nutritional support, and attention to cleanliness are important. During the healing period of the wound (4–8 weeks), tub baths, sexual activity, and vaginal irrigation should be prohibited. Regular follow-up visits are required after surgery.
