Different patients have different treatment methods. Which female patients are suitable for the traditional Chinese medicine treatment of cervical erosion?

Applicable population for TCM treatment of cervical erosion

1. Although cervical erosion is more common in women of childbearing age, some young unmarried women may also suffer from cervical erosion due to early sexual intercourse, abortion or chaotic sexual intercourse. For these young unmarried patients, because they have a strong desire to have children after marriage in the future, if physical therapy is used, it may affect the patient's fertility. To be on the safe side, it is better to choose traditional Chinese medicine, because traditional Chinese medicine is applied externally or taken internally, which is relatively less toxic and side effects on the human body and will not cause much impact on women's fertility.

2. Chinese medicine is recommended for mild to moderate cervical erosion. Generally, the symptoms of mild cervical erosion are relatively mild and the treatment is relatively simple. The use of Chinese medicine for treatment has the advantages of no toxic side effects, no recurrence, good effect and low treatment cost.

There is a strong desire for fertility, and the patients are generally relatively young. If physical therapy is used, it may cause infertility. Therefore, patients who have not given birth should be cautious when choosing physical therapy to treat cervical erosion!

Precautions for TCM treatment of cervical erosion

Patients with mild cervical erosion and cervical erosion with mild symptoms can be treated with traditional Chinese medicine. Relatively speaking, the course of treatment is relatively short and the effect is more significant. However, for patients with moderate cervical erosion and severe cervical erosion with more severe symptoms, physical therapy should be given priority, because traditional Chinese medicine has a longer course of treatment for patients with more severe symptoms of cervical erosion, and the effect of treatment is also very general.

Then, patients with mild cervical erosion and cervical erosion with mild symptoms must cooperate with the treatment of Chinese medicine doctors during the treatment of Chinese medicine, and strictly follow the prescriptions and dosages of Chinese medicine doctors for treatment. Good medicine tastes bitter, and you must persist in it to be effective. Don't give up halfway. During the treatment, pay attention to the hygiene of the vulva, rinse with clean water in the morning and evening, and wash more frequently when there is more secretion. You can also use sanitary napkins, but you must pay attention to changing them frequently to avoid bacterial growth. It is best to avoid sexual intercourse during Chinese medicine treatment to avoid affecting the efficacy.
