Cervical erosion, currently often referred to as cervical columnar epithelium ectopia, refers to the cervical columnar epithelium moving outward to the external opening of the cervical canal under the action of estrogen, thus presenting an appearance similar to erosion. This physiological phenomenon is quite common in women, especially women of childbearing age, who are more likely to experience this due to their high secretion of estrogen. There are many causes of cervical erosion, including infection, hormone imbalance, injury, etc. In terms of infection, pathogens such as fungi, bacteria and viruses invade the cervix through sexual transmission or other routes, which may trigger an inflammatory response, leading to epithelial cell damage and shedding. Hormone imbalance, especially increased estrogen levels, will promote the proliferation of cervical epithelial cells and increase the risk of erosion. Mechanical damage to the cervix, such as tearing during childbirth, or chemical stimulation, may also destroy the integrity of epithelial cells. The symptoms of cervical erosion vary from woman to woman. Some women may have no obvious symptoms, while others may experience increased and sticky vaginal discharge, itchy and painful vulva, or even infertility and lumbosacral pain. Cervical erosion is not directly related to cervical cancer, but regular gynecological examinations are essential for the prevention and early detection of cervical cancer. In terms of treatment, if cervical erosion has no obvious symptoms, no special treatment is usually required. Maintaining a balanced diet, paying attention to personal hygiene, and avoiding unclean sexual life will help the disease heal itself. If uncomfortable symptoms occur, such as abnormal vaginal discharge, lower abdominal pain, etc., you can receive medication or physical therapy under the guidance of a doctor, such as laser, freezing, microwave, etc. Cervical erosion is a common physiological phenomenon, and in most cases there is no need to worry too much. Understanding its causes, symptoms and treatments can help women better maintain their health. Regular gynecological examinations and a healthy lifestyle are important measures to prevent cervical diseases. |
