Patient's question:
Hello doctor, a few days ago I went to the hospital. The doctor said I had vaginitis and mild cervical erosion. The white discharge test only showed ureaplasma urealyticum was positive. He prescribed anti-inflammatory drugs Jiekeshu, Lanshushi oil suppository, and compound huangbai liquid. I need to get more drops next week. The doctor said this condition is difficult to treat. I have been taking Jiekeshu for about a week and feel extremely nauseous.Could you please answer the following questions?
1. Is this condition really difficult to treat? How long will it take to recover?
2. Is the medication prescribed by the doctor correct?
3. Are Jiekeshu, Lanshushi, and compound huangbai liquid available at pharmacies?
Doctor's answer:
Hello, many women choose medication to treat cervical erosion. In fact, medication for cervical erosion can only alleviate symptoms and cannot achieve a root cause cure. The method of treating cervical erosion with medication is suitable for patients with a smaller erosion area or superficial inflammatory infiltration. It is recommended to undergo a cervical liquid-based cytology test (TCT) and an HPV virus test. If both test results are negative, vaginal suppositories can be used under the guidance of a doctor, supplemented by oral traditional Chinese medicine. If the test results show positive indicators, it is advisable to undergo further colposcopy to examine for any abnormal lesions in the cervix.
