Cervical erosion is a very common gynecological disease. Some women often consult about the treatment of cervical erosion. It seems that people do not know much about this common disease. They are often at a loss, nervous and anxious after getting the disease, and give up treatment after not seeing any improvement after a period of treatment. Let me tell you some common sense about cervical erosion, I hope it will be helpful to you.

In fact, cervical erosion is a manifestation of chronic cervicitis, and cervical erosion is not the erosion we usually understand. When the epidermis of the external os of the cervix falls off and is replaced by another epithelial tissue of the os of the cervix, the new epithelium covering the surface is very thin, and even the blood vessels and red tissue underneath can be seen. It looks like real erosion, so it is called cervical erosion. But in fact, it is not real erosion.

Treatment of cervical erosion:

1. Drug treatment-suitable for patients with smaller erosion area and shallower inflammatory infiltration.

2. Physical therapy - is a widely used treatment method, with the advantages of short treatment course and good efficacy. It is suitable for patients with larger erosion area and deeper inflammatory infiltration. Commonly used methods include electric ironing, laser therapy, and cryotherapy.

3. Surgical treatment - If the above treatment is ineffective, or there is cervical hypertrophy, or the erosion is deep and wide, and involves the cervical canal, cervical conization or total hysterectomy may be considered. However, surgical treatment is rarely used nowadays.

Does cervical erosion affect pregnancy? Generally speaking, mild cervical erosion does not affect pregnancy, but in severe cervical erosion, the cervical mucus becomes viscous and contains a large number of white blood cells, which is not conducive to sperm activity and penetration, and will affect conception. Therefore, severe cervical erosion requires active treatment.

Can cervical erosion turn into cancer? Many women with cervical erosion are very concerned about this issue, which is also the main reason for them to seek medical treatment. The answer is yes. According to the analysis of Lin Qiaozhi, a famous gynecological expert in my country, the incidence of cervical cancer in women with cervical erosion is 0.73%, which is significantly higher than the 0.1% in those without cervical erosion. Under the stimulation of long-term chronic inflammation, the columnar epithelium derived from the cervical hyperplasia may undergo atypical hyperplasia. If not treated in time, some of them will eventually develop into cancer, but this development and transformation process is relatively slow.

The above content is all the introduction today about what unmarried women should do if they have cervical erosion. I hope it will be helpful to women who are troubled by cervical erosion. Although cervical erosion is not terrible, it is still necessary to prevent it. Women with cervical erosion are advised to pay attention to the health of their private lives. At the same time, we should also pay attention to the regularity and quality of sex life.
