Can unmarried women undergo microtherapy for cervical erosion?

Patient's question:

I have cervical erosion of the third degree, and currently, the only treatment available is medication. However, medication has almost no effect on the depth of the condition. I have visited several hospitals, and some doctors recommend physical therapy, while others say that since I am unmarried and have not given birth, they do not advocate for physical therapy. What should I do? Marriage and childbirth are important to me, but it may take several years before I can consider them. Will my condition worsen during those years? First question supplement: Could you please give me a satisfactory answer in a few days? Thank you.

Doctor's answer:

Hello: Microwave treatment can be considered. Some people believe that cervical erosion treated with physical therapy methods (such as laser) may lead to infertility, which is actually an incorrect viewpoint. Cervical erosion itself can cause infertility and definitely requires treatment. However, if the erosion is severe, medication may be costly, time-consuming, and labor-intensive (if the erosion is moderate to severe, clinical experience shows that treatment typically takes 2 to 3 months; some people with a good response may recover faster, while others may need more time). Therefore, for patients with severe cervical erosion who have not been able to conceive, it is recommended to use physical therapy methods such as laser treatment, as it is effective quickly. When undergoing treatment, it is important to inform the doctor about your fertility goals, ensuring that the procedure is performed superficially to avoid affecting the function of the cervix. Even in cases of cervical adhesion, a simple procedure can resolve the issue.
