Patient's question:
Detailed medical condition and consultation purpose: I used to have cervical erosion and was treated under the guidance of a doctor for more than two months. The original symptoms have disappeared, but there is only mild discomfort in the external genital area at the end of menstruation, which disappears after a very short time. Please ask me if I have recovered now and if I can still get pregnant in the future?Doctor's answer:
Hello:Generally speaking, surgical treatment is not prone to recurrence because the lesion is completely removed. Other treatment methods, however, may only target the surface of the cervix or fail to adequately eliminate inflammation in the deeper cervical tissues. As a result, while the erosion may be temporarily cured, the underlying cause remains unresolved. Additionally, patients may still be reinfected with pathogenic bacteria due to conditions like vaginitis or induced abortion, leading to a recurrence of cervical erosion over time.
For patients with cervical erosion, the doctor's treatment is only one aspect. After recovery, it is also important for patients to maintain external genital hygiene, practice safe sex, and use contraception to enhance their body's immune response. This helps prevent repeated infections of the cervix, thereby reducing the risk of recurrence.
