Why does it hurt to have sex after cervical erosion treatment?

Patient's question:

At the age of 17, I was told by a doctor that I had cervical erosion. After treatment, the condition improved. However, I don't know why this happened. Now, when I have sex with my boyfriend, it hurts, and it also hurts when I go to the bathroom. Every day, I rinse the outside with clean water.

Doctor's answer:

The condition of cervical erosion is characterized by the replacement of squamous epithelium with columnar epithelium. This metaplastic change does not require special treatment. In the case of Nabothian cysts, this is due to chronic inflammation, and it is generally not necessary to undergo special treatment.
Currently, the inflammation can be treated with medications used to treat vaginal infections, and special surgery is not required for this.
