Patient's question:
What harm does cervical hypertrophy cause in women?Doctor's answer:
The hazards of cervical hypertrophy include:1. Leading to female infertility: Cases of infertility caused by cervical hypertrophy are not uncommon. Simple cervical hypertrophy does not affect pregnancy, but severe cervical hypertrophy can cause inflammatory diseases such as endometritis, tubo-ovarian inflammation, and tubal adhesion or obstruction, which may lead to infertility.
2. Affecting female childbirth: If a pregnant woman's platelet count continues to decline during pregnancy, she should receive treatment. If it remains at a certain level, it can be monitored. Simple cervical hypertrophy does not affect pregnancy, but severe cervical inflammation can cause endometritis, tubo-ovarian inflammation, tubal adhesion or obstruction, leading to infertility.
3. Affecting a woman's normal life: Severe cervical hypertrophy patients often experience symptoms such as bloody leukorrhea, post-coital bleeding, and urinary frequency, urgency, and pain (bladder irritation). These symptoms significantly affect a woman's daily life. When the inflammatory focus spreads along the uterosacral ligaments to the pelvic cavity, discomfort such as lower back and sacral pain, lower abdominal fullness, and dysmenorrhea may occur, worsening during defecation and sexual intercourse.
