This disease usually does not affect menstruation, but it is likely to cause poor menstrual blood flow due to cervical adhesion. It not only seriously affects women's quality of life, but also may turn into cancer at any time if not actively treated. Therefore, the treatment of this disease must be started as early as possible.

Generally, after the onset of the disease, there will be an increase in leucorrhea, which is sometimes even the only symptom. The leucorrhea is purulent or mixed with blood, and is often accompanied by low back pain and lower abdominal pain. Sometimes the vulva is irritated by inflammatory secretions and causes itching, burning sensation, and urination symptoms such as frequent urination and urgency. A small number of patients have symptoms such as sexual intercourse pain and fever.

Washing utensils for men and women should be separated, and each person should use a basin to avoid cross infection.

Pay attention to contact infection. If you get sexually transmitted diseases, including syphilis, gonorrhea, trichomoniasis, etc., both husband and wife must be treated at the same time, and the treatment must be thorough.
