Is cervical erosion severe? What are its effects?

Patient's question:

I got married last year. Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried about it affecting my fertility, and I'm also extremely sensitive to cold and cold drafts. Could you please tell me if cervical erosion is severe and what its impact is?

Doctor's answer:

The cervical erosion you described, as well as cervicitis, is generally caused by childbirth trauma, improper sexual activity, or retrograde infection from vaginitis. Currently, treatment can be performed using microwave therapy or herbal medicine for clearing heat and promoting diuresis.
When considering the treatment of erosive gastritis, traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) for nourishing and regulating the body is often used. Western medicine options include lansoprazole, bismuth potassium citrate, and clarithromycin, among others. It is important to maintain a light diet, avoid overeating, and refrain from spicy and irritating foods.
