Patient's question:
What happens if cervical erosion is severe? Will it cause other complications?Doctor's answer:
Hello, cervical erosion is caused by long-term chronic inflammation, where the columnar epithelium derived from the cervical canal can develop atypical hyperplasia. If not treated in time, a portion of these patients may eventually progress to cancer. However, since this transformation process is relatively slow, there is time to actively treat it. For moderate to severe erosion, surgical treatment is recommended, such as LEEP (loop electrosurgical excision procedure) or cryotherapy. Additionally, there is a more advanced treatment for erosion called the Aurolock cervical repair treatment, which can also be considered.
