Multiple abortions in young women lead to cervicitis

Susan, 25, got pregnant soon after she started living with her boyfriend. Susan chose to have an abortion because she got pregnant before marriage. Due to improper contraceptive measures, Susan got pregnant again six months later. After discussing with her boyfriend, she decided to have an abortion. Some time after the operation, Susan found that her vaginal discharge increased in volume, turned yellow, and had a fishy smell. There was a little blood after each sexual intercourse. Susan thought that her vagina was not clean enough, so she frequently washed her vagina, but her condition did not improve as she expected. Her vaginal discharge increased, she had abdominal pain, and her vaginal discharge had a pungent odor. Susan had to go to the hospital for treatment.

After a gynecological examination, the doctor diagnosed Susan with cervicitis due to multiple miscarriages.

Long-term chronic mechanical stimulation is the main cause of cervicitis. Multiple miscarriages in women are an important cause of cervicitis. Spontaneous or artificial abortions, diagnostic curettage and childbirth may cause damage to the cervix of female friends and lead to inflammation. Repeated artificial abortions and improper abortions can cause varying degrees of cervical damage, giving bacteria an opportunity to take advantage and cause cervicitis. Due to the stimulation of inflammation, local secretions increase, and the cervix will cause erosion if it is immersed in inflammatory secretions for a long time.

Therefore, adult female friends should pay attention to active contraception, avoid or reduce the number of artificial abortions, and avoid cervicitis caused by artificial abortions.
