Patient's question:
The first two months, the doctor diagnosed mild cervical erosion. She asked me to have microwave treatment after giving birth, but I don’t want children right now. What should I do?First follow-up question: In July, I didn’t want children and had medication-induced abortion, which led to mild cervical erosion. Now, due to work, I really can’t have children, and the doctor said I don’t need microwave treatment. Please help me.
Second follow-up question: What should I do to prevent the symptoms from worsening?
Third follow-up question: If I have sex, will the erosion worsen?
Doctor's answer:
Hello, generally women of childbearing age will have varying degrees of cervical erosion. If the erosion is mild and does not cause obvious discomfort, treatment is usually not necessary. The first step in treating cervical erosion is to perform a cervical smear to rule out precancerous lesions. Then, a pathogenological 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.
