Patient's question:
I went to the hospital for a check-up and was diagnosed with mild cervical erosion. Since I have not given birth, the doctor said there was no need for treatment. However, after sexual intercourse today, I noticed that my discharge had blood streaks and was brown in color.What should I do? If there are any medications, could you recommend some treatment methods? Thank you.
Doctor's answer:
Generally, women of childbearing age may have varying degrees of cervical erosion. If the erosion is mild and does not cause obvious discomfort, treatment is usually not necessary. The treatment of cervical erosion first requires a cervical smear to rule out precancerous lesions. Then, a pathological examination of cervical secretions is conducted to determine the specific pathogen causing the condition. If necessary, pathogen culture + drug sensitivity tests can be performed to select appropriate medications for treatment. Medication treatment includes local and systemic approaches. However, for moderate to severe cervical erosion, physical therapy is generally more effective.Examples include laser, microwave, BOM light, electrocautery, and LEEP. It is recommended that you promptly seek examination at a formal hospital. Based on the examination results, follow the guidance of a doctor to receive standardized and systematic treatment, which is not difficult to cure.
