Patient's question:
I have moderate cervical erosion and cervical hypertrophy for over a year. In May, I had a colposcopy examination. Now, when it is required to have microwave therapy, should I still have a cervical scraping?Doctor's answer:
If you have moderate to severe conditions, you may consider undergoing loop electrosurgical excision procedure (LEEP) treatment. It is an efficient minimally invasive physical therapy that can completely remove the erosion area. It is painless, leaves no scars, causes minimal damage to surrounding tissues, does not affect cervical elasticity, and preserves the patient's fertility. Generally, moderate to severe erosion cases can be cured with just one treatment.It is recommended that you go to the hospital and choose a treatment method suitable for you under the guidance of a doctor. Avoid sexual activity and after surgery, pay attention to hygiene, get plenty of rest, and strengthen nutrition. During the healing period of the wound (4–8 weeks), avoid, sexual intercourse, and vaginal irrigation treatment. Regular follow-up visits are required after surgery.
