Can cervical hypertrophy lead to cervical precancerous lesions?

Cervical hypertrophy increases the risk of cervical precancerous lesions, but does not directly cause cervical cancer. Cervical hypertrophy is a common gynecological disease characterized by thickening of cervical tissue, which is usually related to chronic inflammation, endocrine disorders and other factors. When cervical hypertrophy is combined with persistent high-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) infection, it may induce cervical intraepithelial neoplasia, which is what we call cervical precancerous lesions.

Cervical hypertrophy often has no obvious symptoms, but may occasionally cause discomfort such as irregular menstruation, abnormal leucorrhea, or lower abdominal pain. If these symptoms occur, it is recommended to seek medical attention in a timely manner. As for high-risk HPV infection, the virus is mainly transmitted through sexual contact. Unprotected multi-partner sexual behavior may increase the risk of infection. For most people, after being infected with HPV, the body's immune system can clear the virus within one to two years, but a small number of people may continue to be infected with the virus due to reasons such as low immunity, which may lead to cervical precancerous lesions.

It is recommended that women undergo regular cervical screening, such as cervical liquid-based cytology testing (TCT) and HPV testing, to detect any abnormal changes early. HPV vaccination can also effectively prevent related viral infections and reduce the risk of cervical cancer. Maintaining good living habits, including healthy diet, regular work and rest, quitting smoking and limiting alcohol, can also help enhance immunity and reduce the chance of lesions. If you have symptoms or high-risk factors, you should seek medical attention for professional diagnosis and treatment in a timely manner.
