Is cervical erosion common?

Many gynecological hospitals have popular slogans about gynecological diseases posted in the corridors to help female friends have a certain understanding of some common gynecological diseases. Is cervical erosion common? Cervical erosion is a very common gynecological disease, so female friends should not be overly nervous when they find out that they have cervical erosion, but go to a regular hospital for examination and treatment. Let's learn about the causes of cervical erosion.

1. Causes of cervical erosion

1. Frequent artificial abortions

Some young women do not take proper safety measures during pre-marital sexual intercourse, resulting in frequent abortions, which damages the cervix and makes it difficult for it to resist the invasion of bacteria, causing inflammation. Inflammation stimulates the secretion in women's body, and if the cervix is ​​soaked in this secretion for a long time, it will form erosion. In addition, gynecological surgeries such as cervical dilation and curettage can also damage the cervix.

2. Unhealthy sex life

At present, young people generally accept premarital sex, but due to the lack of sexual knowledge, they will lead to unhealthy sex life. Young people have strong physical strength and find high-intensity sex life very stimulating. Having sex more than four times a week can easily cause the disease. This is because the male reproductive organ comes into contact with the female cervix multiple times for a long time, stimulating the cervix and putting a lot of pressure on it. In addition, if the male's genitals are not cleaned properly, more and more germs will be brought into the female's body, which will cause the disease over time. In addition, having too many sexual partners and starting sex too early are also reasons that cannot be underestimated.

3. Unhygienic sex life

For women who have not had sex, germs rarely have the opportunity to enter the female body due to the protection of the hymen, and the vaginal environment is cleaner. Women who have had sexual intercourse are relatively more susceptible to germs because they no longer have the protection of their hymen. Some men do not pay attention to the hygiene of their sexual life. During intimacy, bacteria will enter the female cervix through the male's reproductive organs and cause inflammation. In addition, women who already have this symptom will have the area of ​​cervical erosion expanded, causing deeper erosion. Here, it is recommended that women, for their own health, urge men to do necessary cleaning before intimacy.

4. Over-cleaning

Some women overreact to the hygiene of their private parts and like to use cleansing solutions or soaps to clean their vulva and vagina. In fact, this is just a psychological effect. The female vagina has a self-protection mode. Under the stimulation of female hormones, it produces acidic secretions, which can prevent bacterial growth. However, if inappropriate solutions or soaps are used for cleaning, this protective mode will be destroyed, allowing bacteria to break through and eventually damage the cervix.

5. Related to the menstrual cycle

This disease is related to the menstrual cycle. Studies have shown that the prevalence of this disease in people with a menstrual cycle of more than 28 days is 85.55%, and the prevalence of this disease in people with a menstrual cycle of less than 20 days is 35.55%.
