Patient's question:
During the surgery, the doctor said it would be two years before I could have children. But if my uterus has already healed completely, why wait two more years?Doctor's answer:
Generally, it is considered safe to get pregnant 6 months after surgery, as the endometrium and other tissues have not fully recovered, which is not conducive to embryo development. It is also important to remind you to undergo pre-pregnancy tests before getting pregnant. Whether surgical treatment for cervical erosion affects a woman's future fertility mainly depends on factors such as whether the patient experiences postoperative infections or other complications, whether the cervical erosion has been completely cured, whether there are scars on the cervical surface, and the surgical method used. If the patient's cervix recovers to its pre-surgical smoothness, without postoperative infections or other complications, and without scars on the cervix, then it will not affect future fertility. Laser surgery is prone to scarring, while LEEP knife surgery is a minimally invasive procedure and is less likely to leave scars, so it has a smaller impact on future fertility.
