What are the symptoms of cervicitis

The symptoms of cervicitis mainly include increased vaginal discharge, pain in the lower abdomen or lumbosacral region, and symptoms of urinary tract infection.

Cervicitis is divided into acute cervicitis and chronic cervicitis. The symptoms of acute cervicitis include increased vaginal discharge, which is purulent, accompanied by vulvar itching and burning sensation; intermenstrual bleeding and bleeding after sexual intercourse; if combined with urinary tract infection, symptoms such as urgency, frequency and pain in urination may occur. The symptoms of chronic cervicitis include increased vaginal discharge, which is milky white mucous or light yellow purulent; post-sexual intercourse bleeding may occur when there are cervical polyps; when the inflammation spreads along the uterosacral ligament to the pelvic cavity, there may be lumbar pain, a feeling of heaviness in the lower abdomen and dysmenorrhea, which is aggravated during bowel movements and sexual intercourse.
