Treatment of second degree uterine erosion

Everyone wants to have a healthy body, but with the ever-increasing pace of life, women are particularly prone to some gynecological diseases due to their poor ability to withstand stress. Uterine erosion is a gynecological disease that troubles women. Sometimes it even produces an odor, which puts women in an embarrassing position. If not treated in time, it may even lead to uterine cancer or infertility. Therefore, its treatment is also crucial. Let’s learn about the treatment of second-degree uterine erosion.

Treatment of second degree uterine erosion

There are generally three types of cervical erosion: mild, moderate and severe. If a woman is of childbearing age and has mild cervical erosion but no symptoms, no treatment is required. There are some physiological factors that cause erosion. If it is moderate to severe erosion, it must be diagnosed in a regular hospital. Except for cervical cancer, some physical treatments can be done. Microwave, laser, freezing, and radiofrequency ablation are more commonly used now, and these treatments are more effective. Generally, one treatment may be enough, or two treatments at most.

Drug treatment is suitable for patients with small erosion surface, shallow inflammatory infiltration or limited conditions. Use 25% silver nitrate, chromic acid and other local corrosion agents. The vagina should be irrigated before medication, then wiped dry with dry cotton balls, and cotton balls should be used to protect the normal vaginal mucosa. The drug can also be applied topically with Aibao (preferably by a doctor) or self-administered with vaginal suppositories. Drug treatment is mainly suitable for non-pregnant patients with mild to moderate cervical erosion, but drug treatment generally takes a long time and costs more.

Many Chinese herbal powders also have certain therapeutic effects, but they are prohibited from use during menstruation and pregnancy.

Do not have sexual intercourse or take a bath after taking the medicine

No medication can be used for a long time: especially the vaginal environment, long-term medication can easily lead to candidal vaginitis, which is an imbalance of flora. Therefore, it is not advisable to take medication for a long time if you have severe cervical erosion. Moreover, if the cervical erosion is severe, long-term medication will not get better. Therefore, it would be better to do physical therapy after eliminating the immediate inflammation.

Western medicine treatment

1. Drug treatment - less side effects, more suitable for women who have not given birth. The most common drugs for treating cervical erosion abroad are Shadier Gel, Huijian combination, and external medication Xiaomi suppositories, which are effective but relatively expensive.

1. Carefully apply 10-30% silver nitrate solution or 10% iodine to the affected area with a cotton swab. After using silver nitrate, apply normal saline to convert excess silver nitrate into non-corrosive silver chloride. Take twice a week, 4 to 6 times as a course of treatment, and repeat if necessary.

2. Use a cotton swab to dip in potassium dichromate solution and carefully apply it to the affected area. Apply the medicine once after the menstruation is over and repeat it after the next menstruation. It is sometimes more effective for those with larger erosion areas. Before applying the medicine, wipe the cervical mucus with 0.1% chlorhexidine, and place two cotton balls in the posterior fornix to prevent the medicine from flowing down and burning the vaginal mucosa. After finishing, take out the cotton ball and wipe the applied area with a 75% alcohol cotton swab (formula: 10g potassium dichromate, 75ml concentrated sulfuric acid, add water to 100ml).

2. Physical therapy - suitable for patients with moderate and severe cervical erosion. Commonly used methods include electric ironing, laser therapy, and cryotherapy. The disadvantage is that the side effects are large and may cause the nerve sensitivity of the vaginal wall to decrease, affecting the quality of sexual life. In addition, it is easy to relapse after being cured.

The above is an introduction to the treatment of second-degree cervical erosion. After understanding it, we must maintain good living habits during treatment, pay more attention to our physical hygiene, and change underwear frequently. We should also try to wear loose and comfortable pants. In addition, we should also pay attention to the hygiene of sexual life, which will be more beneficial to the recovery of the disease.
