Patient's question:
Having sex causes vaginal bleeding, which has been going on for 15 days.Doctor's answer:
Cervical erosion is the shedding of the epithelial cells at the external os of the cervix, which are replaced by another type of epithelial tissue. Due to the thinness of the newly formed epithelial covering, it can even be delicate. The underlying blood vessels and red tissue can be seen, making it appear as if there is significant erosion, hence the term "cervical erosion." Treating cervical erosion is relatively difficult, and it has a high risk of malignancy. It is recommended to undergo microwave therapy, which can be somewhat effective.
