Is cervical hypertrophy harmful?

Cervical hypertrophy may have a certain impact on women's health, but not all cases require excessive worry. The decision whether to seek medical attention should be based on the specific cause and symptoms.

Cervical hypertrophy is a common gynecological disease characterized by an increase in the size of the cervix, which may be caused by chronic inflammation, hormone imbalance, or incomplete postpartum recovery. Mild cervical hypertrophy usually has no obvious symptoms, but in severe cases, it may be accompanied by increased vaginal discharge, lower abdominal pain, or discomfort during sexual intercourse.

Cervical hypertrophy itself does not directly cause malignant diseases, but long-term untreated inflammation may increase the risk of infection and even affect fertility. If accompanied by abnormal bleeding, persistent abdominal pain or leucorrhea with odor, it should be taken seriously. At the same time, certain causes such as cervical polyps and glandular abnormalities require further examination and diagnosis.

In order to avoid the impact of cervical hypertrophy on the body, it is recommended to have regular gynecological examinations, maintain good hygiene habits, and avoid sitting for long periods of time or working in a hot and humid environment; if symptoms are obvious or there are concerns, please go to a regular hospital in time to seek professional evaluation and treatment from a doctor.
