Cervical erosion is closely related to vaginal infection

Cervical erosion is a common gynecological disease, more common in married women, which refers to the complete exfoliation of the cervical mucosa, exposing the bottom tissue surface, without epithelial coverage, like an ulcer. There are many causes of cervical erosion, among which vaginal infection is one of the important factors.

Clinically, it is found that most patients with cervical erosion also have vaginal infection, and the incidence of cervical erosion in patients with vaginitis is significantly higher than that in patients without a history of vaginitis. It can be seen that cervical erosion is closely related to vaginal infection by pathogenic microorganisms. Since the cervix is ​​located in the vagina, vaginal infection causes vaginitis, which changes the internal environment and easily causes inflammation of the cervix. Chronic inflammation causes repeated exfoliation of the cervical mucosa, which leads to cervical erosion in the long term. Therefore, cervical erosion is the result of chronic cervicitis. The following bad behaviors may cause vaginal infection, and women should be vigilant.

1. Unclean sexual life: Unclean sexual life can cause pathogenic microorganisms to invade the vagina. The bacteria can directly infect the cervix, and long-term stimulation can cause cervical erosion.

2. Excessive sexual life: Excessive intensity and frequency of sexual life cause repeated mechanical stimulation to the cervical mucosa, which is also one of the causes of cervical erosion.

3. Multiple abortions: Abortions cause varying degrees of cervical damage and can easily allow pathogenic microorganisms to invade, triggering local inflammation and causing cervical erosion.

4. Excessive cleaning of the vulva: Excessive cleaning will affect the growth of normal vaginal flora, causing pathogenic bacteria to multiply, causing vaginal inflammation, and then causing cervical erosion.
