What are the treatments for severe cervical erosion?

Severe cervical erosion refers to the situation where the erosion area exceeds 2/3 of the total area of ​​the cervix. If not treated in time, it will cause great harm to women. Therefore, it should be diagnosed and treated early.

1. Drug treatment

For women with mild to moderate cervical erosion, drug treatment may achieve better results; while for women with severe cervical erosion, the effect of drug treatment alone is often not obvious, but it can be used as an auxiliary means of other treatments.

2. Physical therapy

This method is suitable for patients with moderate and severe cervical erosion with a large erosion area and deep inflammatory infiltration. Commonly used methods include electric ironing, laser therapy, cryotherapy, etc., which have the advantages of short treatment course and good efficacy. It should be noted that physical therapy will also have certain side effects: for example, it may reduce the sensitivity of the nerves in the inner wall of the vagina, affecting the quality of sexual life; it is easy to relapse after treatment; or too deep treatment may cause cervical gland closure and changes in cervical mucus, leading to female infertility.

3. Surgical treatment

For patients who are unresponsive to medication and physical therapy, have deep or large cervical erosion, cervical hypertrophy, or suspected of having cancer, cervical cone resection or total hysterectomy may be considered.

In addition to the above treatments, patients can also use TCM syndrome differentiation and treatment, or take some traditional Chinese medicine prescriptions for treatment. It should be noted that patients must use medication under the guidance of professional doctors to avoid delaying the disease.
