A brief analysis of the etiology of cervical precancerous lesions

The treatment of cervical precancerous lesions is actually not very difficult, but many women will experience malignant changes during treatment. At this time, women will feel very surprised. Why does it still become malignant when they have insisted on treatment? The following will explain to you the causes of cervical precancerous lesions.

1. Improper sex life

Women who do not have sex usually do not suffer from cervical precancer. The earlier they have improper sex, the more likely they are to develop cervical precancer. Sexual promiscuity (including both men and women), young age of first sexual intercourse, marriage and childbirth factors, cervical erosion, viral infection (HSV-2, HPV), etc. are high-risk factors for cervical precancer. Foreign reports show that those who start sex before the age of 15 or have more than 6 sexual partners have a 10-fold increased risk of cervical precancer. At the same time, the cholesterol in the male smegma can be converted into carcinogens after being acted upon by bacteria, which is also an important inducement for cervical precancer.

2. Smoking

Smoking increases the chance of developing cervical precancerous lesions because smoking reduces the body's immunity and accelerates the development of cervical precancerous lesion cells. In addition, some carcinogens produced by smoking may also cause the development of cervical precancerous lesions.

3. HPV infection

High-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) infection is the main factor causing cervical precancerous lesions. The above patients with cervical precancerous lesions are accompanied by high-risk HPV infection. When HPV infection persists, it can induce cervical precancerous lesions under the influence of factors such as smoking, use of contraceptives, sexually transmitted diseases, etc. This process is long, that is, it takes a relatively long time for HPV infection to develop into precancerous lesions, namely CIN, and it also takes a long time for CIN to develop into cancer. Regular inspections can detect and treat it in time before it becomes cancerous.

Female patients with cervical precancerous lesions can read more about the above article and observe whether they have the habit of talking during their usual treatment. If so, they must correct it as soon as possible to avoid the disease from worsening and increase the difficulty of cure.
