Is microwave treatment effective for cervical erosion? Three questions about microwave treatment for cervical erosion

In life, the proportion of women suffering from cervical erosion is increasing year by year, and the age group of patients is showing a trend of younger age. The harm to women's health cannot be ignored. The main methods for treating cervical erosion are drug treatment, surgical treatment, and physical therapy. Among them, is the effect and function of microwave treatment of cervical erosion good? What degree of cervical erosion is suitable for microwave therapy?

1. Microwave treatment of cervical erosion

Women with cervical erosion who have abnormal secretions and contact bleeding should actively seek treatment, which can be treated with microwaves, lasers, and liposuction according to the patient's specific condition. Microwave treatment has been widely recognized in clinical practice.

Microwave treatment of cervical erosion means that microwaves are controlled to enter the lesion tissue according to clinical needs, and the energy consumed by microwaves is used to generate heat. The high heat denatures and coagulates the protein of the lesion tissue, and can also seal 3-4mm blood vessels to achieve the effect of hemostasis, thus achieving the purpose of curing the disease. After microwave treatment, women may have a slight increase in vaginal discharge in the first half of the month, which is yellow and watery and has an odor. This is mostly due to the formation and shedding of cervical scabs after microwave treatment. After half a month of treatment, vaginal discharge gradually decreases, and necrosis at the treatment site disappears; about 40 days later, the cervix becomes red or pink, and squamous epithelium begins to grow from the periphery to the cervical opening; about 2 months later, cervical congestion decreases, local squamous epithelium regenerates, interstitial blood vessels expand, and granulation tissue proliferates. After about 2 weeks, the color of the cervix can return to normal and the cervix can become smooth.

2. Disadvantages of microwave treatment for cervical erosion

In fact, not all women can achieve the desired effect after microwave treatment of cervical erosion. At the same time, microwave therapy has certain side effects, such as reducing the sensitivity of the nerves in the vaginal wall, affecting the quality of sexual life, and easy recurrence after treatment. If it is used improperly during the treatment process, it is also very likely to damage the patient's normal tissue.

Compared with other treatments such as drugs and leep knife, the overall efficiency of microwave treatment for cervical erosion is between the two. However, there will be a long period of vaginal discharge and a long healing time for the cervical wound after microwave treatment. There are still inevitable disadvantages such as damage to the cervix, incomplete healing, and repeated attacks.

3. Which symptoms of cervical erosion are suitable for microwave treatment?

There are many ways to treat cervical erosion. At present, medication is the most common and basic treatment method. But in addition to this, there are other treatments. For example, microwave therapy is one of them. It is the most ideal treatment method for mild and moderate cervical erosion.

Before microwave treatment of cervical erosion, vaginal examination, cervical scraping or cervical biopsy should be performed to exclude cervical cancer, trichomonas, fungus and vaginal infection, and sexually transmitted diseases. Microwave treatment should be performed within 3-7 days after menstruation ends, and the healing period is about 1-2 months. After treatment, it is normal to have discharge and a small amount of bleeding. Do not participate in physical activities, and do not wash or put medicine without the guidance of a doctor.

Microwave therapy is also widely used in various gynecological diseases such as various warts on the vulva and vagina. It causes less damage, less bleeding, fast healing, and complete shedding of warts. Microwave coagulation of the cyst wall of Bartholin's gland cyst has a good hemostatic effect and is beneficial to the drainage of cyst fluid to achieve the treatment goal.
