The editor here would like to introduce some basic information to you. It is better for us to know our bodies ourselves. If you need to know more, let's take a look at the specific precautions and complications after cervical conization!

1. Precautions after surgery

1. Avoid sexual intercourse within two months after surgery to prevent bleeding and wound infection.

2. If vaginal bleeding exceeds the amount of menstrual bleeding after the operation, you should go to the best local hospital immediately to stop the bleeding. Excessive vaginal bleeding can be life-threatening. [2] [6]

2. Surgical complications and treatment

1. Bleeding after surgery. Immediate bleeding after surgery is due to poor hemostasis during surgery. Secondary bleeding after surgery often occurs 5 to 12 days after surgery, and is more common in patients with deep resection of lesions and concurrent infections. Depending on the amount of bleeding, gauze compression, freezing, electrocautery, and re-suturing may be used, and occasionally hysterectomy may be required.

2. Uterine perforation or cervical perforation is extremely rare, but if it occurs, the uterus may need to be removed. 3. Pelvic infection after surgery requires treatment with antibiotics.

4. Cervical stenosis. The incidence rate is about 1 to 5%. According to literature reports, the incidence rate of cervical adhesion is related to patients over 50 years old and cone depth exceeding 2 cm. Patients may experience dysmenorrhea, menstrual retention, amenorrhea, or brown or black vaginal spotting during menstruation. Patients with cervical adhesions can use a cervical dilator to dilate the cervix. [6] [3]

5. Postoperative follow-up

3. Come back for HPV, cancer prevention smear and colposcopy examination three months after the operation. As long as all the tests are normal, check again after half a year. Six times every six months. If it is still normal, you can check it again once a year. A total of 8 years were checked. If there is no problem, you can rest assured. The most important thing is that there is no recurrence in the first two years.
