What causes moderate cervical erosion?

Cervical erosion is common among married women, but it does not mean that unmarried women have no possibility of cervical erosion. Most cases of cervical erosion are related to sexual life. Once the barrier protection of the hymen is lost, the bacteria enter the vagina and infect the cervix. Unclean sexual life is one of the causes of damage to the cervix. Below I will introduce to you the causes of cervical erosion.

Cervical columnar epithelium ectopia is a normal physiological phenomenon and has no special clinical manifestations. Some people may experience contact bleeding, but this is just an individual difference in the cervix, just like some people will bleed from their teeth or mouth when they chew something hard. If the amount of vaginal discharge increases, becomes yellow, and has an odor, it is a sign of cervical inflammation. The cyst and hypertrophy of the cervix are also the result of chronic cervical inflammation.

1. Due to excessive menstrual flow and prolonged menstrual period, the squamous epithelium of the cervix is ​​immersed in alkaline secretions and menstrual blood, and is stimulated for a long time to form inflammation; or due to congenital erosion, the estrogen level decreases, the cervix is ​​congested, and the endocervical epithelium proliferates and moves downward, causing the cervix to become eroded.

2. Unclean sexual life. Since young people do not have a stable source of income, and premarital sex is mostly kept secret, they are unable to create a stable and clean sexual environment, and thus the chances of getting sick are greatly increased.

3. Excessive cleaning. If you choose inappropriate cleaning products and use a high concentration of disinfectant to flush the vagina, it will not only cause varying degrees of cervical epithelial damage, but it will also affect the growth of normal vaginal flora, reduce its ability to inhibit bacteria, and eventually cause erosion.

4. Repeated artificial abortion. Multiple abortions, diagnostic curettage, cervical dilation and other gynecological surgeries caused by premarital sex may lead to cervical injury or inflammation, and ultimately cause cervical erosion.

The above are the causes of cervical erosion. Many women pay great attention to hygiene, but lack the necessary knowledge. They often blindly choose to flush the vagina with cleaning solutions, which has the opposite effect and may cause more serious cervical erosion. I hope that after reading the above content, everyone will know how to protect the cervix from harm and avoid cervical erosion caused by some bad habits.
