What tests are needed for cervical hypertrophy

Cervical hypertrophy, as a common condition of chronic cervicitis in women, has certain impacts and hazards on women's physical health.

The main examinations for cervical hypertrophy include the following:

1. Gynecological examination: Through gynecological examination, the doctor can observe the size, shape, texture, color, and whether there is abnormal secretion of the cervix, and make a preliminary judgment on whether there is cervical hypertrophy.

2. Cervical smear test: Cervical smear test is a method of screening for cervical cancer, and can also be used to check for cervical hypertrophy. Cervical smear test can detect whether cervical cells have abnormal proliferation or cancer.

3. Colposcopy: Colposcopy can magnify the cervix several times and observe subtle changes on the surface of the cervix. At the same time, tissues from suspicious areas can be taken for pathological examination, which helps to detect early cervical cancer or cervical lesions.

4. Cervical biopsy: Cervical biopsy is the gold standard for diagnosing cervical cancer and cervical lesions. Cervical tissue from suspicious areas can be taken for pathological examination under a colposcope.

5. Ultrasonic examination: Ultrasonic examination can observe the shape, size, internal echo, etc. of the cervix, which helps to determine the degree of cervical hypertrophy and whether there are other lesions.

In addition to the above examination methods, cytology examination, HPV test and other examination methods can also be used to diagnose cervical hypertrophy. Before treatment, the doctor will choose the appropriate examination method according to the patient's specific situation to confirm cervical hypertrophy and formulate a corresponding treatment plan.
