Why is cervicitis always difficult to cure? What complications can cervicitis cause in women?

Some women who have cervicitis actively go to the hospital for examination and treatment. However, after being cured, the condition recurs. So, what is going on? What should I do if cervicitis recurs?

What to do if cervicitis recurs

1. Complete cure: Many patients with cervicitis feel that they have recovered after a period of treatment, but in fact the inflammation still exists. During treatment, a complete cure is needed to avoid recurrence of the lesions.

2. Follow-up examination: In order to avoid the recurrence of cervicitis, female patients should also do regular follow-up examinations after surgery to check their physical recovery.

3. Pay attention to care: Maintaining a healthy lifestyle, clean private parts, eating fruits and vegetables that are good for the body, and living a clean life are all important aspects that cannot be ignored to avoid the recurrence of cervicitis.

Why does cervicitis recur?

1. Incomplete treatment: During physical treatments such as laser, electric perm or microwave, if the treatment is too superficial or limited in scope, the diseased tissue in the eroded area cannot be completely destroyed, resulting in residual diseased tissue and causing recurrence.

2. Severe lesions: The larger the area of ​​cervical erosion, the higher the recurrence rate. Therefore, mild and moderate cervical erosion have a higher cure rate, while severe patients are more likely to relapse.

3. Abnormal local immunity: There is a medical saying that every time you have sex, the bacteria brought in will play a specific immune invasion role. Women who have many sexual partners will suffer from repeated attacks of cervicitis.

4. Cervicitis can be acute or chronic. Chronic cervicitis is more common. It usually occurs when the cervix is ​​damaged after childbirth or abortion. It is often caused by the lack of thorough treatment of acute cervicitis. Therefore, patients in the acute stage must be thoroughly treated and recovered.

What complications can cervicitis cause?

First, cervical polyps

The female endocervix will have localized hyperplasia due to chronic inflammation, and then form single or multiple bright red polyps with pedicles, and finally protrude from the endocervical canal or the external cervical opening. Its diameter is generally less than 1 cm, and it is rich in blood vessels, so it is easy to bleed when touched.

Second, cervical hypertrophy

Due to the long-term stimulation of chronic inflammation, the cervix will become enlarged due to congestion, edema, infiltration of inflammatory cells, and hyperplasia of connective tissue.

Third, cervical gland cyst

During the process of cervical erosion slowly healing, the new squamous epithelium can directly cover the opening of the cervical gland duct or extend into the gland duct, and then block the gland duct. The connective tissue around the gland duct will proliferate or scar, and it can also compress the gland duct to block the drainage of glandular secretions, which will be retained and form cysts. Its clinical manifestation is mainly a number of bluish-white vesicles protruding from the surface of the cervix, containing colorless jelly. If infection occurs, the appearance of the small vesicles is mostly white or light yellow.
