What causes cervical hypertrophy?

Patient's question:

A week ago, the unit organized a physical examination. The results just came out yesterday, and my overall health condition is quite good. However, there is a minor issue with the gynecological examination, which is described as cervical hypertrophy. I don't feel any discomfort myself, but I'd like to ask, what are the causes of cervical hypertrophy?

Doctor's answer:

Cervical hypertrophy is a type of chronic cervical inflammation. The pathogens that cause this disease include mycoplasma, chlamydia, bacteria, and viruses. Simple hypertrophy does not affect pregnancy, but severe cervical inflammation can lead to endometritis, tubo-ovarian inflammation, tubal adhesion, and obstruction, resulting in infertility. If you have cervical hypertrophy, it is best to go to a gynecological hospital for a cervical secretion examination.
