What happens if uterine erosion is severe?

Uterine erosion is also called cervical erosion. Cervical erosion is a very common gynecological disease. Generally, women who have sexual life have more or less cervical erosion. Although cervical erosion does not cause much harm to the human body, it should not be underestimated. If you suffer from cervical erosion, you must seek timely treatment. You must pay more attention to personal hygiene and wash your private parts with warm water every day.

Is cervical erosion serious? Cervical erosion is a cervical disease that is common in women of childbearing age and is the most common clinical manifestation of chronic cervicitis. Depending on the size of the erosion surface, it is divided into mild cervical erosion, moderate cervical erosion, and severe cervical erosion. Depending on the depth and shape of the erosion surface, it can be divided into simple type, granular type, and papillary type. Mild cervical erosion is not very serious, but patients with long-term and severe cervical erosion have a higher incidence of cervical prelesions and cervical cancer; the naked eye cannot distinguish whether it is erosion or prelesions and early stages. Therefore, it is not enough for patients to undergo only routine gynecological examinations. They should undergo TCT examinations at the same time as their gynecological examinations once a year. Mild cervical erosion usually does not affect conception because the inflammation is relatively mild. However, in cases of moderate to severe cervical erosion, especially severe cases, the inflammatory changes are serious and the leucorrhea is often purulent and very viscous. Inflammatory leucorrhea can inhibit or kill sperm, and the thick cervical mucus can prevent sperm from passing through the cervical canal, therefore affecting conception. When the inflammation spreads along the uterosacral ligament to the pelvic cavity and affects the fallopian tubes, it can also lead to inflammatory adhesions of the fallopian tubes, affecting the fertilization process and causing infertility. Therefore, patients with more severe cervical erosion, even women who have not yet given birth, need timely treatment. This is not only related to the long-term severe inflammatory stimulation that may cause cervical erosion, but also to whether the patient can successfully conceive.
