What tests should be done if you have cervicitis?

Cervicitis is a common gynecological inflammation. I believe that some married female friends should have been infected with cervicitis to varying degrees. Cervicitis itself is not terrible. Timely and effective treatment is the key to recovery. So, what examinations should be done for cervicitis? The following experts will introduce it in detail.

1. Gynecological examination

The focus is on checking the size, shape, texture and thickness of the cervical canal and whether contact bleeding occurs. The second focus is on checking the vagina, vulva, uterus and paracervical tissue.

2. Iodine test and naked eye observation method

The iodine test and naked eye observation are simple, easy and cheap, and can detect at least 2/3 of the lesions. The initial screening method for cervical cancer is to apply 3%-5% acetic acid solution to the cervix, observe the reaction between the cervical epithelium and acetic acid, and then take a biopsy from the white lesion area.

3. Colposcopy

Colposcopy can detect lesions that cannot be seen by the naked eye, and taking biopsies from suspicious areas during colposcopy can significantly improve the accuracy of biopsies.

The above is the introduction of the examination items for cervicitis made by the gynecological expert group. After reading it, do you know what items you should do when you go to the hospital to check for cervicitis? Of course, there are differences in individual physical constitutions, and the examination items may be different. Experts remind: female friends should choose regular hospitals when choosing a hospital, so as to ensure the accuracy of the diagnosis.
