Patient's question:
What are the consequences of not treating cervical erosion?Doctor's answer:
Hello, if cervical erosion is not treated in a timely manner, its harm is very significant. The specific details are as follows:1. Cervical erosion can lead to infertility. When suffering from cervical erosion, cervical secretions increase significantly, becoming viscous and containing a large number of white blood cells, which can engulf sperm and reduce its activity, thereby affecting conception.
2. Long-term inflammation invading cervical tissue can cause infections in adjacent organs, such as cervical endometritis or chronic pelvic inflammatory disease. It can also lead to more severe conditions like polyps, cracks, inversion, and cysts.
3. Cervical diseases can lead to cervical cancer. Once inflammation occurs in the cervix, it opens a window for viral infection, making it highly prone to cancerous transformation.
