Does pregnancy with cervical erosion affect the fetus?

After getting married, many women have gynecological diseases of varying degrees. In recent years, more and more women have suffered from cervical erosion. In fact, this is not a disease, but a normal physiological condition, so there is no need to worry too much. Many people will ask: I have suffered from cervical erosion for many years. Will it affect the fetus if I get pregnant with cervical erosion?

Does having cervical erosion affect the baby if you get pregnant?

When ordinary people hear the term cervical erosion, they have already imagined "my uterus has started to rot. If it is not treated, the entire uterus will gradually rot and smell bad. Not to mention having a baby, even having a period may become a problem." In fact, it is a normal physiological condition.

The cervix has a junction between squamous epithelial cells and columnar epithelial cells. Before puberty, the "squamo-columnar junction" is located in the cervical canal. After puberty, under the action of progesterone, the volume of the cervix increases rapidly and greatly exceeds the uterine body, followed by cervical eversion. Ectropion exposes the cervical columnar epithelial cells at the external os of the cervix, which appear red and rough - red because the columnar epithelial cells are arranged unilaterally, with a rich vascular network underneath; rough because the columnar epithelial cells are connected to each other and appear fluffy or granular. Simply put, the eversion of columnar epithelial cells is caused by the "mischief" of estrogen, and this physiological condition lasts for decades starting from puberty. But some people have it and some don't, it depends on their physical fitness.

Cervical erosion is a normal physiological condition, so cervical erosion will not affect pregnancy. If it is not accompanied by gynecological inflammation, suffering from cervical erosion will not have any effect on the fetus. "Cervical erosion" has no special clinical symptoms and generally does not require special treatment. Unnecessary treatment may also cause additional harm to the body, such as adhesion or occlusion of the external cervical os, cervicitis or endometriosis caused by trauma, and miscarriage or premature birth caused by cervical function damage.

However, some diseases such as cervical cancer, precancerous lesions, cervicitis, etc., may cause cervical erosion-like changes. Therefore, if cervical erosion-like changes are found during clinical examinations, cytology examinations should be performed. We should neither blindly follow the trend to treat "cervical erosion", nor delay treatment by ignoring the examination for cervical cancer and cervicitis because we think that "cervical erosion" is a normal physiological change.
