Patient's question:
My partner has been pregnant for nearly 50 days. A few days ago, she had a small amount of bleeding from her lower abdomen. After seeing a doctor, it was confirmed that it is mild cervical erosion. I would like to ask if mild cervical erosion is serious and can it be treated with medication? If medication is not used, will the condition become worse?First follow-up question: If medication is not used, will the condition become worse?
Doctor's answer:
Hello: Mild cervical erosion can be left untreated, and it is sufficient to pay attention to hygiene. It is generally better to treat it after childbirth.Regarding the treatment of cervical erosion in pregnant women, the main treatment measures should be determined based on the patient's individual condition and the severity of the cervical erosion. Since pregnancy makes cervical erosion a special case, the treatment can be more complex. Therefore, if it is mild cervical erosion, it is recommended to undergo thorough treatment after delivery. If the cervical erosion is severe, it cannot be ruled out that it may lead to retrograde infection of the fetus or even cause a miscarriage.
