Improper surgery is the main cause of cervical erosion

The incidence of cervical erosion is so high that it can be said that more than 60% of married and childbearing women have cervical erosion to varying degrees. The causes of cervical erosion are generally thought to be related to women's special physiological characteristics. Indeed, the causes of cervical erosion are mainly the following.

The main cause of cervical erosion is childbirth, abortion or surgery that damages the cervix or causes cervical eversion. Bacteria invade the cervix and cause infection. The epithelium of the vaginal part of the cervix is ​​squamous epithelium, which has weak resistance to inflammation. Bacteria mainly invade the part covered by the columnar epithelium. Because the endocervical membrane has many wrinkles and cracks, bacteria hide here. The infection is not easy to be completely eliminated, forming chronic cervicitis. When the squamous epithelium on the surface of the vaginal part of the cervix at the external opening of the cervix is ​​lost due to inflammation and covered by the columnar epithelium of the cervical canal, the tissue in this area becomes a granular red area, which is called cervical erosion. The main pathogens that cause cervical erosion are Staphylococcus, Streptococcus, Escherichia coli and anaerobic bacteria.

The main symptoms of cervical erosion include increased leucorrhea, which is yellow-white or pus-like. Some patients experience frequent urination and bleeding after sexual intercourse, increased menstrual flow or prolonged menstrual period, infertility, etc. When the inflammation spreads along the uterosacral ligament to the pelvic cavity, there may be symptoms such as low back pain, pelvic pain and dysmenorrhea.

The above causes of cervical erosion are almost inevitable, which is also one of the reasons for the high incidence of cervical erosion. In view of these causes of cervical erosion, experts point out that childbirth, abortion or other gynecological surgeries should be performed in regular medical institutions as much as possible, and good cleaning measures should be taken before and after the operation.
