Diagnosis of early cervical precancerous lesions

Although technology is advanced nowadays, it is still an era where people are afraid of cancer. Cervical precancerous lesions are common malignant tumors with a high incidence rate. Many people have lost their precious lives because of cervical precancerous lesions. Everyone regards this disease as an incurable disease, but this is not the case. If cervical precancerous lesions can be detected in the early stage, the chance of cure is very high. Therefore, female friends must pay attention to gynecological diagnosis, early detection, and early treatment.

1. Do not refuse cervical diagnosis during pregnancy

Pregnant women often have cervical precancer or precancerous lesions. Patients or doctors often attribute vaginal bleeding during pregnancy to threatened abortion, miscarriage or placenta previa, and worry that vaginal speculum diagnosis will have adverse effects on the pregnancy. Therefore, they fail to make the necessary diagnosis for those who have vaginal bleeding during pregnancy, resulting in delayed diagnosis.

2. Be familiar with the early signs of cervical precancerous lesions

Contact vaginal bleeding, irregular vaginal bleeding, postmenopausal vaginal bleeding, irregular menstruation, increased vaginal discharge with odor, etc. may be early signs of cervical precancerous lesions. Once such symptoms occur, you should go to the hospital as soon as possible and receive related diagnoses such as gynecological examination, cytology, colposcopy, cervical biopsy, etc.

3. Don’t take cervicitis lightly

Cervicitis is a common disease among women. Patients often experience increased vaginal discharge with odor, vaginal and vulvar itching, etc. Some patients also experience a small amount of contact vaginal bleeding after intercourse and gynecological examination. When the above symptoms occur and you seek medical attention, if you have never undergone cervical screening or the time for re-screening has expired, you should first undergo cervical cytology diagnosis, HPV testing, etc. to exclude cervical precancerous lesions or precancerous lesions before considering cervicitis. Otherwise, it is easy to miss the opportunity to diagnose cervical precancerous lesions at an early stage.

4. Actively participate in cervical screening

It is entirely possible for women who are already sexually active to detect cervical lesions early by undergoing regular gynecological diagnosis and using effective screening methods under the guidance of a doctor.

5. Confirmed by pathological diagnosis

When doctors suspect that there is a lesion in the cervix and the cytological diagnosis is abnormal, they need to use biopsy forceps to take a bite biopsy of the cervical lesion under direct vision or colposcopy, and can take one or more points of tissue for pathological diagnosis. Pathological histological diagnosis is the standard for confirming cervical precancerous lesions.

Female friends should pay attention to eating regularly in their daily lives and do physical examinations on time. Even if you find that you have cervical precancerous lesions, you don’t have to be too nervous. You should seize the best time, maintain an optimistic and positive attitude, eat a balanced diet, exercise appropriately, and cooperate with the doctor’s treatment. Seize the best time for treatment.
