When you encounter cervicitis during pregnancy, you should treat it in time

There are two types of cervicitis: acute and chronic. Acute cervicitis often coexists with acute endometritis or acute vaginitis, but chronic cervicitis is more common. The main manifestation is an increase in leucorrhea, which is sticky mucus or purulent mucus, sometimes accompanied by or mixed with blood. It can be seen that artificial abortion is not suitable during the onset of cervicitis. Usually, artificial abortion can only be performed after the inflammation or other physical symptoms are controlled.

However, if it is mild cervicitis, anti-inflammatory and symptomatic treatment can be given after the abortion. If the cervicitis is severe, anti-inflammatory treatment can be given for two or three days and the surgery can be performed after the inflammation is controlled. During the artificial abortion, the surgical instruments enter the uterine cavity through the cervix for operation. If the cervicitis is not treated before the operation, it is very likely that the bacteria hidden in the cervical canal will be brought into the uterine cavity with the surgical instruments. After the operation, there are surgical wounds in the uterine cavity, which just provide favorable conditions for the growth and reproduction of bacteria, thus causing postoperative uterine cavity infection.

When you are pregnant, you should treat cervicitis promptly to avoid prenatal bleeding

Not to mention that cervicitis itself makes it difficult for women to get pregnant. Even if they get pregnant by chance, the increase in estrogen levels in pregnant women will make cervical erosion more serious and even cause very difficult to treat prenatal bleeding, which will endanger the safety of the pregnant mother and the fetus. Therefore, once cervical erosion is found, it should be treated thoroughly in time.

Cervical erosion is the most common. During gynecological examination, the cervix loses its pink and smooth mucosa and becomes uneven and red and granular. This is the result of the replacement of the squamous epithelium of the cervix with columnar epithelium. Chronic cervicitis often manifests as increased vaginal discharge, which is purulent and may be mixed with blood. Sometimes contact bleeding (i.e. bleeding after intercourse) may occur. Patients with more extensive inflammation may experience lower back pain.
