Does increased yellow leucorrhea indicate cervical erosion?

1. Cervical erosion generally refers to ectopia of the cervical columnar epithelium. Increased and yellowish leucorrhea is generally not ectopia of the cervical columnar epithelium.

2. Cervical columnar epithelial ectopy is a normal physiological phenomenon. Patients generally have no obvious clinical symptoms. Cervical columnar epithelial ectopy is mainly affected by estrogen. If the estrogen in the body is relatively high, cervical columnar epithelial ectopy is the movement of the cervical columnar epithelium outward to the cervical canal outlet. Because the columnar epithelium is very thin, subcutaneous capillaries will appear faintly, and the local area may be red. In this case, special treatment is generally not required, and good living habits can be maintained. If the leucorrhea increases and turns yellow, it can be considered to be caused by infection with pathogenic microorganisms, which has no direct relationship with cervical columnar epithelial ectopy.

3. If the patient has an increase in leucorrhea and it turns yellow, he must go to a regular hospital for the corresponding examination. After clarifying the cause of treatment, he can take metronidazole tablets, tinidazole tablets, amoxicillin capsules and other drugs under the guidance of a doctor. During the treatment, you must pay attention to personal hygiene, avoid using unclean hygiene products, and do not scratch the affected area with your hands to avoid affecting the treatment effect. Most patients can improve their symptoms through active and effective treatment. After treatment, you should also follow the doctor's advice for regular follow-up to understand the recovery of the disease, because the severity of each person's condition is different and the recovery time will also be different.
