Does severe cervical erosion cause infertility?

Patient's question:

Six months ago, I had an abortion. After the abortion, because I did not recover well, I developed cervical erosion. I have been receiving treatment ever since. However, the results of the treatment have not been very noticeable. After that, I also did not use contraception, but since then, I have never been able to get pregnant again.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, there is a certain relationship. Cervical erosion is one manifestation of chronic cervical inflammation. Cervical inflammation affects the normal internal environment of the vagina, which is not conducive to the activity and survival of sperm. Furthermore, inflammation is not conducive to sperm penetration. If it develops severely, it can lead to upward infection, triggering pelvic inflammatory disease and adnexal inflammation, which can affect normal conception and fertility.
