The harm of cervical erosion to women

Cervical erosion is the most common pathological change of chronic cervicitis and a common disease that threatens women's reproductive health. Its main hazards are as follows.

1. High risk of cervical cancer

Clinical statistics show that the incidence of cervical cancer in women with cervical erosion is nearly ten times higher than that of the general population, because long-term inflammatory stimulation leads to atypical hyperplasia of the cervical canal, which can gradually develop into cervical precancerous lesions. In addition, patients with stubborn cervical erosion need to take drugs for multiple times, which causes the vagina to lose its normal microecological balance, reduce immunity, and reduce the ability to resist viruses, leading to cervical cancer.

2. Trigger other inflammatory stimuli

When cervical erosion occurs, it can affect other organs and cause inflammation. For example, the pathogens of cervical erosion can ascend to cause endometritis; spread through the parauterine ligaments and lymphatic vessels to cause chronic pelvic inflammatory disease; when inflammation spreads to the bladder triangle, it can cause urinary system diseases and cause irritation symptoms such as urinary pain, frequent urination or difficulty urinating.

3. Cause miscarriage?

Patients with cervical erosion during pregnancy have high levels of estrogen and progesterone in their bodies, which can cause the cervical erosion to gradually become more severe and even be accompanied by irregular vaginal bleeding. If not treated in time, it can cause premature rupture of the fetal membranes, loss of amniotic fluid, and lead to miscarriage.

4. Cause infertility

Severe cervical erosion can even cause female infertility. The texture and secretion of cervical mucus are directly related to whether sperm can pass through the cervix into the uterine cavity. Cervical secretions will increase significantly, become thick, and contain a large number of white blood cells, which will destroy the normal physiological environment of the vagina and restrict the activity of sperm, leading to infertility.
