What are the causes of cervical erosion?

Patient's question:

The doctor's examination revealed second-degree cervical erosion, excessive white discharge, which was yellow but without pain or itching. She had an abortion last month and is 11 weeks and 7 months pregnant. She has undergone one TCT test, which was normal.

Doctor's answer:

Cervical columnar epithelial ectopia does not require any treatment. Currently, many methods for treating cervical erosion are incorrect. However, for symptomatic cervical inflammation, treatment is necessary. Acute inflammation can be treated with topical medication, while chronic inflammation can be addressed using physical therapy methods such as laser or cryotherapy. The occurrence of cervical erosion not only affects the patient's physical health but also leads to gynecological diseases. Therefore, it is best to visit a gynecological department in the hospital for a check-up, identify the cause, and receive targeted treatment. Additionally, pay attention to personal hygiene and maintain cleanliness in the perineal area.
