Patient's question:
Please ask if I have 3 degrees of cervical erosion and have fertility requirements. Among laser, microwave, and cryotherapy, which treatment method is better for preserving cervical function?Doctor's answer:
Hello: Some people believe that physical therapy methods for cervical erosion (such as laser) may lead to infertility, which is actually an incorrect view. Cervical erosion itself can cause infertility and definitely requires treatment. However, if the erosion is severe, using medication for treatment may be costly, time-consuming, and labor-intensive (if the erosion is moderate to severe, clinical experience shows that treatment may take 2 to 3 months; some people with a good response may recover quickly, while others may need a longer duration). Therefore, for patients with severe cervical erosion who have not been able to conceive, it is recommended to use physical therapy methods such as laser, as they are effective quickly. When undergoing treatment, it is important to inform the doctor about your fertility needs, ensuring that the procedure is performed shallowly enough to not affect the function of the cervix. Even in cases of cervical adhesion, it can be resolved by a simple procedure.
