Patient's question:
Medical Description: In May 2008, I underwent a physical therapy surgery called cryotherapy for cervical erosion, but after follow-up, it hasn't fully healed. Now I'm 33 weeks pregnant. Can I still have a vaginal delivery?Past Treatment and Effectiveness: The treatment wasn't very effective.
Help Needed: Which delivery method should I choose?
Doctor's answer:
Hello, second-degree cervical erosion may affect the possibility of a natural delivery during future childbirth, but not all patients are unable to give birth. This depends on individual constitution. Therefore, in clinical practice, women with fertility requirements must receive timely treatment.Early detection of cervical erosion should primarily focus on symptoms. Women with cervical erosion often experience increased leukorrhea, which is viscous, occasionally purulent or bloody leukorrhea. Symptoms such as lower back pain, abdominal pain, and a heavy sensation in the lower abdomen may also accompany it. Intercourse may cause contact bleeding and a bad odor.
It is recommended to combine traditional Chinese and Western medicine treatment, as it does not lead to drug resistance and yields better results. Post-surgery, the cervix may develop scars, affecting elasticity and fertility. It is advisable to use Li Bai Nian Kushi Zi Cao Ointment, a traditional Chinese medicine, to repair the cervix, improve the cleanliness of the female reproductive tract, and effectively prevent recurrence.
Avoid promiscuous sexual activity or excessive frequency of intercourse. Refrain from sexual activity during menstruation and maintain a positive mood to enhance physical fitness and disease resistance.
