Will cervical erosion heal on its own?

Cervical erosion is a common gynecological disease, but many female friends do not care about it. If cervical erosion is severe, it will cause irreversible damage to the health of the uterus. Cervical erosion will not heal on its own, so patients need to receive timely treatment and recover as soon as possible.

1. Will cervical erosion heal on its own?

It will not heal on its own. If it is moderate or severe cervical erosion, then treatment is required. For moderate cervical erosion, consider using topical medications combined with physical therapy for comprehensive treatment. For severe cervical erosion, then surgical treatment is required.

2. Treatment of cervical erosion

It is recommended to use local treatment as the main method. If the erosion area is large or the inflammatory infiltration is deep, freezing, laser, or electric ironing therapy can be used. If the erosion area is small or the inflammatory infiltration is shallow, local medication can be used. During the period from treatment to complete healing, care should be taken to keep the vulva clean, avoid bathing, sexual intercourse and vaginal douching, and check the healing status regularly.

2. Daily precautions for cervical erosion

First: Pay attention to personal hygiene, change clothes frequently, and use disinfectant to sterilize first.

Second: Do not take antibiotics and do not clean the vagina frequently, as this can easily destroy the acid-base environment of the vagina.
