Cervical hypertrophy will lead to recurrence, and the prognosis needs to be distinguished

32-year-old Ms. Lin came to the clinic today. She said that she had just read a popular science article before the consultation, which said: As a type of chronic cervicitis, it has been confirmed that cervical hypertrophy is caused by excessive sexual intercourse. Excessive sexual intercourse can cause edema and congestion in the cervix. Continuous edema and congestion make the cervix hypertrophy. Severe cervical hypertrophy will directly lead to female infertility. In addition, cervical hypertrophy can also cause difficulties in delivery and lead to dystocia. Then I remembered that our unit organized a physical examination one month ago, and the doctor who conducted the physical examination told me that I had cervical hypertrophy. What should I do? I still want a second child!

Cervical hypertrophy refers to the long-term stimulation of chronic inflammation that leads to glandular and interstitial hyperplasia, and the retention of glandular mucus deep in the cervix to form cysts, both of which can cause the cervix to hypertrophy to varying degrees and increase its hardness. It can be 2 to 3 times the normal size, but the surface is mostly smooth, light red or milky white, and not prone to bleeding. If it is simple cervical hypertrophy, generally no treatment is required, as long as you pay attention to personal hygiene in daily life.

However, if the patient has severe cervicitis, it may cause endometritis, salpingo-oophoritis, fallopian tube adhesions, obstruction, etc., which may affect women's conception and eventually lead to infertility. If the cervical hypertrophy has obvious symptoms such as increased leucorrhea, foul-smelling secretions, backache, lower abdominal distension, etc., it is necessary to take medication under the guidance of a doctor. For patients with deep and wide cervical hypertrophy and erosion, and involving the cervical canal and patients with cancer, surgical treatment or physical therapy as appropriate can be performed, such as cryotherapy, laser therapy, etc. Female friends can choose the appropriate treatment according to their specific circumstances. Generally, they can be cured after regular and thorough treatment, but if the following two situations exist, there is a possibility of recurrence.

If postoperative care is not thorough, recurrence may occur.

After the treatment of cervical hypertrophy, a certain period of care is required, otherwise the residual pathogens and inflammatory tissues are difficult to completely remove. Female friends should maintain local hygiene of the vulva and wash the vulva with warm water every day to prevent bacteria from breeding and causing recurrence. In addition, sexual life must be kept clean, and the reexamination work needs to be done in one step.

2. If cervical hypertrophy is not treated thoroughly, it may recur

If cervical hypertrophy is accompanied by cervical polyps, it should be removed in time after discovery, but in real life, many people are careless and think that they can be cured by taking some medicine and doing physical therapy, which leads to the protracted disease. Even if they undergo surgical removal, the polyp tissue does not disappear because the doctor does not operate seriously, and grows again after a long period of planning.

Because cervical hypertrophy is mostly caused by chronic inflammation, if you find that it is not just cervical hypertrophy, but also accompanied by other diseases, you should go to the hospital for examination immediately. Do not blindly consult online or because you have no time, which will lead to other complications. Female friends who are planning to prepare for pregnancy should pay more attention to the care of private parts and avoid frequent sexual life. Have regular gynecological examinations and actively treat cervicitis when it is found. In daily life, you should pay more attention to diet conditioning. Generally, you should stay away from greasy and spicy foods, such as peppers and fatty meat. You can choose to eat more fresh fruits and vegetables, pay attention to physical exercise, maintain a happy mood, and ensure physical and mental health.
