How long does it take to repair a cervical cone biopsy?

Cervical conization can be used to treat and diagnose cervical precancerous lesions. Cervical conization is divided into cold knife conization and Leep knife conization. Different surgical treatments will result in different intraoperative bleeding and recovery time. Compared with cold knife cone biopsy, Leep knife cone biopsy will cause less bleeding and the recovery process will be faster. After the cold knife cone biopsy, the sutures need to be sutured about 2 weeks after the cone biopsy. There may be some looseness in the sutures and bleeding may occur. This is all normal.

Generally, it takes 2-3 months for cervical conization surgery to recover to normal, but for most women, their physical condition has recovered relatively well in about a month after the conization. However, in the next two months or so, there may be a small amount of pink secretion or yellowish secretion, which is all normal.

How long does cervical conization surgery take?

The time for cervical conization is not fixed, it may vary from 5 to 10 minutes. The length of the operation is directly related to the severity of the condition. If the condition is relatively mild, the difficulty of the operation is relatively low, and the operation time is relatively fast. If the condition is serious, the difficulty of the operation will be increased, and the operation time will be longer. It may take more than ten minutes. Under normal circumstances, it will not exceed 20 to 30 minutes. Therefore, patients do not need to worry about anything, just cooperate with the doctor and have a comfortable operation.

After the cervical conization surgery, the wound must be given sufficient time to heal. It usually takes 8-12 weeks for the wound to heal, so you must refrain from sexual intercourse for at least two or three months after the operation. It is better to give the body sufficient time to recover after the operation. Follow-up is needed 1-2 months after the operation to understand the healing status of the wound, and also to clearly understand whether there is adhesion of the cervical canal. If any abnormality occurs, you must actively use medication to treat it. Vaginal smear and HPV-DNA testing are needed 3 months after the operation to understand whether there is the possibility of lesions. If there is no abnormality, there is no need to worry. You must pay attention to rest in your daily life, not too much work, especially not excessive exercise before the body recovers as soon as possible.

Patients who have undergone cervical conization should have a follow-up visit every 3-6 months. The follow-up time can be increased after 2 years, and it would be sufficient to follow up and re-examine once a year to allow the body to recover faster. Be sure to ensure a light and non-irritating diet, avoid eating raw, cold or irritating foods, and try to reduce early contact with irritating foods such as alcohol, tobacco, and strong tea.
