Patient's question:
The last menstrual period was on October 10th, and it hasn't arrived yet. I have condylomas and chronic cervical. The condylomas have been treated, with a follow-up check scheduled for mid-December. The cervical is still being treated. Previously, I had been taking anti-inflammatory tablets and menstrual regulation medication. About two weeks ago, I used two doses of Andafen suppositories and then stopped. For nearly two weeks, I've been feeling a slight pain deep in the vagina, near the cervix, and there's been coffee-colored discharge, sometimes with a small amount of blood. What could be causing this? Is it a more severe case of cervical, or is it menstrual irregularity?Doctor's answer:
For mild cervical inflammation, medication can be used for treatment. After dilating the vagina with a dilator, appropriate medication is selected to irrigate and flush the cervix. Through the drug irrigation, the inflamed cells of the cervix and vagina can be flushed away, making it difficult for bacteria to multiply and allowing normal epithelial tissue to grow. For patients with mild conditions, good results can be achieved after a period of treatment.For moderate cervical inflammation, microwave therapy can be adopted. The microwave energy heats the affected area to a temperature slightly higher than body temperature, accelerating blood flow and allowing immune cells to infiltrate the blood. Under this high temperature, pathogenic microorganisms attached to the cervical mucosa will die, and the diseased tissue will degenerate, atrophy, and fall off. Under microwave irradiation, the blood circulation speed in the diseased tissue will increase. As a result, necrotic metabolic products can be carried away by the blood, while fresh blood brings oxygen and various nutrients, promoting the recovery of the diseased tissue. For patients with moderate cervical inflammation, this therapy is the first choice.
For severe cervical inflammation, the currently advanced radiofrequency ablation technology can be used for treatment. Radiofrequency minimally invasive ablation technology for severe cervical inflammation has a short course, good effects, and does not affect cervical elasticity or normal sexual life. Moreover, since hospitalization is not required and treatment is completed in one session, it is safe, painless, and significantly reduces medical costs.
