Does female cervical erosion affect the fetus? Does female cervical erosion need treatment?

Some pregnant women find out that they have cervical erosion after they become pregnant. They worry that cervical erosion will have a bad impact on the fetus and even consider having an abortion. So does cervical erosion have an impact on the fetus? Let's take a look with the experts below!

For expectant mothers, pregnancy is a happy and difficult time. They happily look forward to the birth of their children, but also worry about the health of the fetus. Therefore, physiological health care during pregnancy is very important. Relatively speaking, the health of pregnant women with cervical erosion has a greater impact on the development of the fetus. How to do a good job of health care during pregnancy is something that expectant mothers need to pay special attention to.

During pregnancy, the physiological health indexes of pregnant women are relatively low, and the body's resistance is reduced, which provides opportunities for various diseases. Cervical erosion is one of the diseases that may occur. When expectant mothers find that they have cervical erosion, they don't need to panic too much, nor should they use drugs casually. First of all, they must have a correct understanding of cervical erosion.

Cervical erosion during pregnancy may be a false

During pregnancy, pregnant women may find that the columnar epithelium of the cervix is ​​very obviously everted, that is, from the appearance, it appears eroded, which is very similar to the symptoms of cervical erosion we usually hear, and patients can easily identify themselves with it. In fact, during pregnancy, the estrogen level in the body of pregnant women is relatively high. The disorder of hormone levels in the body will cause cervical congestion, enhanced cervical gland secretion function, and the proliferation of the columnar epithelium of the cervical canal, which makes the cervix eroded. This kind of fake symptom is actually physiological cervical erosion caused by the physiological factors of the pregnant woman herself, not the result of inflammation. This disease will be well alleviated with the end of pregnancy.

How can expectant mothers take good care of themselves during pregnancy?

If you suffer from real cervical erosion during pregnancy, it is not terrible. Especially for mild cervical erosion, you only need to observe and pay more attention to control the development of the disease. You can wait until after delivery for treatment to avoid drug treatment affecting the healthy development of the fetus. The treatment of severe cervical erosion should also take the health of the fetus as the primary starting point, adopt the treatment method with the least impact and the least harm, follow the doctor's advice, and use the medicine safely. In fact, experts say that cervical erosion itself has no infectious effect on the healthy development of the fetus. The focus is on the health conditioning and treatment of the expectant mother herself. If you don't understand cervical erosion during pregnancy and abuse drugs, it may cause abnormal development of the baby. However, it is worth noting that based on the low immunity of pregnant women, the possibility of bacterial infection is relatively large. If cervical erosion and bacterial infection coexist, it will cause certain dangers to the healthy development of the fetus and normal delivery.

Cervical erosion during pregnancy is mainly treated locally, and can be treated with medication, physical therapy, and surgery, with physical therapy being the most commonly used. Local medication is only suitable for cases with small erosion areas and shallow inflammation. Physical therapy is used for cases above grade II. The principle is to destroy the single-layer columnar epithelium on the surface of cervical erosion, so that it necrotizes and falls off, and is covered by new stratified squamous epithelium. There are laser therapy, cryotherapy, infrared coagulation therapy, and microwave therapy. This type of treatment is relatively safe, but if the cervical erosion is deeper, it may cause cervical stenosis during the treatment and healing process, so it should be used with caution for women who have not given birth. For unmarried patients, they can choose to receive treatment after giving birth, or they can receive treatment first. If cervical stenosis occurs after treatment, a cesarean section can be used during delivery.

Pregnant mothers should do the following to take care of their health during pregnancy:

1. Eat healthy and avoid irritating foods, such as hot and sour, cold and other irritating foods.

2. Maintain hygiene to avoid bacterial infection. During pregnancy, the genitals are sensitive to hygiene, so the main focus is on cleaning and care of the external genitals. Do not use irritating drugs to wash the inside of the vagina, and the cleaning frequency should not be too high.

3. Strengthen exercise and improve your immunity. Improving the immunity of pregnant women is based on cultivating good living habits, ensuring adequate sleep, balanced diet and nutrition, and maintaining an optimistic and positive mood.

4. Control sexual intercourse to reduce the chance of cervical infection.

5. Carry out regular check-ups and pay close attention to the progression of the disease.
