Does cervical hypertrophy require surgery? What are the precautions for cervical hypertrophy surgery?

Whether or not to have surgery for cervical hypertrophy depends mainly on whether there are symptoms. If it is mild cervical hypertrophy, generally there will be no obvious symptoms, and surgical treatment is not required at this time. However, if cervical hypertrophy causes obvious symptoms, such as increased vaginal discharge or cervical congestion and edema, surgical treatment is usually required.

Cervical atrophy or cervical hypertrophy is not a normal phenomenon. In real life, many female friends have encountered the problem of cervical hypertrophy. Most of them are caused by chronic inflammation and long-term stimulation, which may cause symptoms such as increased vaginal discharge and should be taken seriously. So does cervical hypertrophy require surgery?
1. Does cervical hypertrophy require surgery?
1. No surgery if no symptoms <br/>There are many causes of cervical hypertrophy, and the condition can be mild or severe. If it is mild cervical hypertrophy, generally there will not be a significant increase in vaginal discharge, or local congestion and edema of the cervix, and surgery is not needed at this time. Because even with surgical treatment, it is difficult for cervical hypertrophy to return to its previous size. If it does not cause adverse symptoms, there is no point in doing surgery. Just do regular cervical cancer screening and deal with any abnormalities accordingly.
2. Surgery is available if symptoms are present <br/>Some cases of cervical hypertrophy are relatively serious, with obvious clinical symptoms, such as local congestion and edema of the cervix, which is an increase in vaginal secretions. At this time, surgical treatment can be considered. Generally, minimally invasive surgery is used for treatment, and physical therapy such as laser can also be used directly for treatment. However, surgery can only improve the direct adverse symptoms, and cannot restore the local cervix to its original state.

2. Precautions for surgery for cervical hypertrophy
1. Keep the vulva clean <br/>If the patient has undergone surgery, there will usually be a lot of vaginal discharge after the operation, so the vulva must be cleaned. Wash the vulva with warm water every day, and change sanitary napkins and underwear frequently to prevent infection and affect postoperative recovery.
2. Go to the hospital for regular check-ups <br/>For patients with cervical hypertrophy, even if they have undergone surgical treatment, they should not take it lightly, but go to the hospital for regular check-ups. The purpose of the check-up is to understand the healing of the surgery, and if any abnormalities are found, they need to be dealt with in a timely manner. In addition, cervical cancer screening should be done every year.
