The presence of squamous cells in the cervix is ​​a phenomenon that some women are diagnosed with during examinations, and many people do not know what this is about.

Is it normal to have squamous cells on the cervix?

1. First of all, it should be clear that these scale-like cells may be normal cells in the body. The reason for this is that there are certain differences in morphology from normal cells to distinguish them, and this type of cells can also be normally converted with normal cells. Therefore, sometimes you will find them in the body, and sometimes you will find them not in the body. Generally, it is normal when the number is not large, and there is no need to worry about it.

2. However, if the situation is more serious and there are a large number of squamous cells in the cervix, then it is abnormal and needs to be taken seriously. It may be severe cervical erosion or cervical squamous cell carcinoma.

1). If the biopsy shows only mild atypical hyperplasia, it can be treated as a general inflammation by taking antibacterial and anti-inflammatory drugs such as metronidazole. However, another biopsy should be done after half a year. If moderate atypical hyperplasia has occurred, laser, freezing and other methods should be used for treatment.

2). Surgery is a relatively common treatment approach, which is used for early-stage patients. Common surgical methods include total hysterectomy. Of course, the location of the resection will vary depending on the severity of the disease.
