Cervical erosion is a common gynecological disease that has a significant impact on the health and normal life of female patients. After falling ill, timely and early treatment is necessary. Will cervical erosion affect fertility? Let's understand together.
Does cervical erosion affect fertility
1. Generally speaking, mild patients do not need to worry about childbirth. The area of erosion is small, there are relatively few secretions, there are no abnormalities in the vaginal discharge, no bleeding symptoms, and no lower abdominal distension. After hospital examination, all are normal and can actively prepare for pregnancy. The subtle harm of the cervix is difficult to resist the advancement of sperm.
2. Patients with large areas of erosion, namely moderate and severe, require treatment to prepare for pregnancy. This is because due to the influence of large-scale inflammation, women will develop purulent vaginal discharge and cervical fluid will become thicker. This secretion contains a lot of white blood cells, which are the natural enemies of sperm. It consumes sperm's physical strength and cannot find an egg. Of course, it cannot reproduce. Sperm breaks through the 10000 weight level and binds to the egg, causing inflammatory pathogens to rise along the cervix and rupture of the fetal membrane, leading to miscarriage. Therefore, for moderate and severe patients, only by cooperating with the doctor to Curative care and prepare for pregnancy can healthy babies be born
The hazards of cervical erosion
1. Causing infertility: When cervical erosion occurs, especially in moderate to severe cases, cervical secretions significantly increase, with a sticky texture and a large number of white blood cells. Phagocytosis of sperm has a negative impact on sperm motility, hindering sperm entry into the uterine cavity, and affecting pregnancy.
2. Complication: Inflammation of other organs after cervical erosion. For example, the pathogen of cervical erosion can rise to the para uterine ligament that causes Endometritis, and the spread of Lymphatic vessel causes chronic pelvic inflammation. When the inflammation affects the bladder triangle, it will cause diseases of the Urinary system, causing pain, frequency, Dysuria and other irritating symptoms.
3. Long term stimulation of chronic inflammation can cause deeper diseases such as polyps, lacerations, ectropions, and cysts.
4. Carcinogenesis: In women with cervical erosion, the incidence of cervical cancer is nearly 10 times higher than in the general population. Under the stimulation of long-term chronic inflammation, atypical hyperplasia of the columnar epithelium in the cervical canal can occur. If not treated promptly and correctly, it will develop towards the direction of cervical precancerous lesions. Cervical erosion is always accompanied by HPV infection, which is one of the suspicious signals causing cervical cancer, and this development process usually takes 5-10 years.
