How to diagnose cervicitis? Through gynecological examination

The cervix is ​​an important defense organ for women, but because the cervix has poor disease resistance, it is easily damaged or invaded by bacteria, causing cervicitis. Sexual intercourse, childbirth, and various gynecological examinations may damage the cervix, which only causes inflammation of the cervix. The pain of cervicitis is not obvious. Cervicitis can be confirmed through gynecological examinations, secretion examinations, and cervical smear examinations.

If there is bleeding during sexual intercourse, it may be caused by cervicitis. Women do not feel pain when cervicitis occurs, so it is often ignored and leads to chronic cervicitis and severe cervicitis. Cervicitis should be actively prevented and checked in time, and treated as soon as possible. How to diagnose cervicitis? This question can be understood in the following content.
1. A gynecological examination is required to confirm cervicitis . After dilating the vagina with a gynecological dilator, the lesions in the cervix can be clearly seen. Therefore, a gynecological examination is required to confirm cervicitis. The doctor can make a preliminary diagnosis of cervicitis by observing the shape, color and whether there is bleeding on contact with the cervix. Because cervicitis can cause the cervix to swell and become red, and bleeding may occur when touched with a sterile cotton swab.
2. A secretion examination is required to confirm cervicitis . When cervicitis occurs, the biological environment of cervical secretions will change. Through the examination of secretions, it can be seen whether there are gonococci, trichomonas, fungi and various bacteria. Through the examination of secretions, it can be seen whether the cervix has inflammatory changes. The cause of cervicitis can also be understood according to the detected bacteria to provide a basis for later treatment.
3. Cervical smear examination is required to confirm cervicitis .<br/>Through cytological examination of cervical smear, we can know the cell changes in the cervix in detail and accurately judge cervicitis. And cervical smear examination can also see whether chronic cervicitis will cause malignant tumors of the cervix.
If a woman has bleeding during sexual intercourse and has increased secretions, bloody and purulent leucorrhea, she should go to the hospital as soon as possible to check whether she has cervicitis. If acute cervicitis is not handled and treated in time, it may develop into chronic cervicitis, causing greater damage to the woman's body and reproductive function.
