I had sex 20 days after cervical erosion

Cervical erosion is a particularly common symptom among women. It is also a disease that poses a great threat to the health of women's reproductive system. If not treated in time, cervical erosion may become malignant. Patients with cervical erosion generally cannot have sex blindly. After treatment, they need to wait for a period of time before having sex. So, how long after treatment of cervical erosion can you have sex? This will be introduced below!

1. Can I have sex with cervical erosion?

For simple cervical erosion, that is, it is caused only by the outward migration of the columnar epithelium, sexual intercourse is still possible in this case. If the lesion is cervical erosion-like and it cannot be determined whether it is caused by simple columnar epithelial migration, cervical cancer screening should be performed. If the cervical cancer screening shows no abnormalities, you can still have sex; if the cervical cancer screening shows abnormalities, further diagnosis and treatment are needed. For simple symptomatic cervical erosion, such as severe erosion or cervical erosion that affects pregnancy, it is best to give cervical physical therapy, including laser, electrocautery, cryotherapy, etc. During the treatment process, sexual intercourse is not recommended. After 2-3 months of treatment, when normal epithelium covers the surface of the cervix and the cervical wound heals, you can have sex.

2. Will cervical erosion cause bleeding during intercourse?

Cervical erosion is a common disease among women, and people of all ages may suffer from cervical erosion. Especially for patients with primary cervical erosion, because the symptoms are not very obvious, they often ignore its existence and do not receive treatment, which leads to serious consequences later. So will there be bleeding during intercourse if you have cervical erosion?

When women with cervical erosion have sex, the penis is in direct contact with the cervix. If they do not pay attention to sexual hygiene, the bacteria can be directly brought into the vagina and infect the cervix. For women who already have cervical erosion, it can aggravate their cervical inflammation and may expand the erosion surface. Severe cervical erosion may sometimes cause bleeding during sexual intercourse.

3. What are the symptoms of cervical erosion?

In the case of mild cervical erosion, patients generally have no obvious symptoms and may only feel a slight increase in leucorrhea, so it is very easy to be ignored. Many patients' cervical erosion is discovered during gynecological examinations or when they seek medical treatment for other gynecological diseases. Patients generally do not discover the symptoms of cervical erosion themselves. After suffering from cervical erosion, the amount of leucorrhea will increase and become thicker, and occasionally there may be purulent or bloody leucorrhea. It is often accompanied by low back pain, abdominal pain, and a feeling of heaviness in the lower abdomen. Contact bleeding may also occur during sexual intercourse, and the appearance of odor is also very likely.
