Patient's question:
My wife has been diagnosed with severe cervical erosion, and we don't have children yet. What is the best method to treat it now without affecting future fertility, and what is the most effective approach?Doctor's answer:
Hello: It is essential to actively and thoroughly treat it! Some people believe that physical therapy methods for cervical erosion (such as laser) may lead to infertility, but this is actually an incorrect viewpoint. Cervical erosion itself can cause infertility and definitely requires treatment. However, if the erosion is severe, using medication may be costly, time-consuming, and require a lot of effort (if the erosion is moderate to severe, clinical experience shows that treatment typically takes 2 to 3 months; some people with a good response may recover faster, while others may need more time). 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. This method is effective quickly, and during treatment, you should inform your doctor about your fertility goals, ensuring the procedure is performed shallowly enough to not affect the function of the cervix. Even if there is cervical adhesion, it can be treated by passing a catheter through it.
