Patient's question:
My partner has been pregnant for nearly 50 days. A few days ago, she had a small amount of bleeding from her lower abdomen. After seeing a doctor, it was confirmed that it is mild cervical erosion. I would like to ask if mild cervical erosion is serious and can medication be used? If medication is not used, will the condition become more severe? First follow-up question: If medication is not used, will the condition become more severe?Doctor's answer:
Hello: Mild cervical erosion can be left untreated, and it is sufficient to pay attention to hygiene. It is generally better to treat it after childbirth.Regarding the treatment of cervical erosion in pregnant women, the main treatment measures should be determined based on the patient's individual condition and the severity of the cervical erosion. Since pregnancy makes cervical erosion a special case, the treatment can be more complex. Therefore, if the cervical erosion is mild, it is recommended to wait until after delivery for thorough treatment. If the cervical erosion is severe, the possibility of retrograde infection to the fetus cannot be ruled out, and it may even lead to miscarriage.
