Three common misunderstandings about the treatment of cervical cancer Six traditional Chinese medicine prescriptions for cervical cancer

In recent years, more and more women have been suffering from cervical cancer. The uterus is an important reproductive organ for women, but people have long had some misunderstandings about it.

Common misunderstandings about cervical cancer treatment:

Myth 1: Cervical erosion will turn into cervical cancer

1. "Cervical erosion" is a problem that troubles many women.

2. Now the obstetrics and gynecology community has abandoned the term "cervical erosion" and replaced it with "cervical columnar epithelial ectopia (columnarectopy)", believing that it is not a pathological change, but should be regarded as a physiological change of the cervix.

3. However, due to long-term habit, many doctors have not changed their minds and still call it "cervical erosion". What's worse, some medical institutions and commercial advertisements make a fuss about it for economic interests, making people more panic about "cervical erosion". If "cervical erosion" is found during gynecological examination, don't panic and follow the regular cervical disease screening.

Myth 2: Treating cervical erosion as a precancerous lesion of cervical cancer

1. For a long time, clinicians have regarded chronic cervicitis and cervical erosion as synonyms, and actively used various physical treatments such as laser, freezing, microwave, and even Leep knife to treat cervical diseases.

2. These incorrect treatments not only bring physical pain and economic losses to healthy women, but also bring quite serious side effects.

3. If young women who have not yet given birth use Leep for overtreatment, the risk of "miscarriage or premature birth" in future pregnancies may double! The so-called "cervical erosion" is essentially a physiological phenomenon of cervical columnar epithelium ectopy, not a disease, and does not require treatment.

Myth 3: A positive HPV test or abnormal cervical smear means you have cancer

1. In fact, not necessarily. You may need further examination, perhaps a colposcopy or a biopsy for cancer cells.

2. Although human papillomavirus (HpV) is the culprit of cervical cancer, the human body can eliminate it in most cases. The probability of HPV infection in a person's lifetime is 75%-90%, and 50%-75% of people in the world now carry HPV. HPV is divided into two categories: low-risk and high-risk, with more than 100 types, and different types can cause different diseases. Only a small number of virus carriers will develop cervical cancer.

3. Other infected people have no clinical symptoms due to different types of viruses or different immunity.

4. HPV is not as scary as everyone imagines, and there is no need to be overly nervous.
