Does cervical erosion affect pregnancy?

Patient's question:

Two months ago, I went to the hospital for a check-up. The doctor said I had severe cervical erosion, endometrial polyps, and mycoplasma infection. He prescribed medication for me, and the doctor said it would not affect pregnancy.

Doctor's answer:

Severe cervical erosion: Multiple factors can lead to cervical erosion (cervical inflammation), causing changes in the mucus quality on the cervix surface, which is unfavorable for sperm penetration and may affect pregnancy. However, many women with cervical erosion still conceive, so it is not an absolute cause of infertility.
Endometrial polyps: The presence of endometrial polyps suggests an unfavorable intrauterine environment, making it difficult for a fertilized egg to implant. If implantation occurs, it may lead to miscarriage, which is one of the common reasons for pregnancy loss. It is recommended to undergo treatment before considering pregnancy.
Mycoplasma infection: Mycoplasma itself does not significantly affect pregnancy, but its presence in the cervical canal hinders sperm penetration. However, mycoplasma-induced endometritis can lead to the formation of endometrial polyps and cause inflammation of the fallopian tubes, potentially resulting in tubal blockage, ectopic pregnancy, or infertility. Of course, this process takes time.
In summary, it is recommended that you undergo polypectomy under hysteroscopy combined with fallopian tube patency testing, followed by integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine treatment to aid conception.
