Suffering from cervical erosion requires treatment

The vast majority of cervical erosions do not require any treatment and do not cause any discomfort. Many people discover it during a gynecological examination.

Although treatment is not necessary, you should at least have a gynecological examination every year, and the most important one is the cervical smear test. This simple and painless test can detect more than 90% of cervical cancer, one of the most common gynecological cancers.

Cervical erosion usually does not affect pregnancy and childbirth. However, due to hormone changes in some people after pregnancy, it will be slightly aggravated, but it has little effect on the fetus. It should be noted that human papillomavirus (HPV) is particularly prone to cervical infection and is also one of the important causes of cervical cancer. This virus can be transmitted through sexual intercourse. Therefore, if you start sexual intercourse at an early age or have more than two sexual partners, the risk index of cervical cancer will be greatly increased, so you should pay special attention to regular check-ups.

If the following conditions occur, it may be a sign of worsening inflammation: more vaginal discharge, the color changes from transparent to white or yellowish white, purulent or bloody, or a peculiar smell. Bleeding during sexual intercourse may be due to worsening cervical inflammation or early signs of cervical cancer. Don't take it lightly. Once these symptoms occur, you should make an appointment with a gynecologist for examination and treatment.
