How can patients with cervical erosion prevent cervical cancer

Cervical erosion is a common pathological change of chronic cervicitis. Studies have shown that the incidence of cervical cancer in women with cervical erosion is 10 times higher than that in women without cervical erosion. The more severe the cervical erosion and the longer the course of the disease, the greater the chance of cervical cancer. Therefore, patients with cervical erosion should actively treat and prevent the occurrence of cervical cancer.

1. Active treatment: To prevent the occurrence of cancer, the first task is to treat cervical erosion as soon as possible.

2. Keep the vulva clean: If there is no infection, do not use any washing liquid. You can wash the vulva with warm water 2-3 times a day, but do not wash the vagina.

3. Take good contraceptive measures: Take good contraceptive measures to avoid the pain and trauma of abortion and curettage. Cervical lacerations caused by childbirth should be sutured in time.

4. Reduce the number of sexual partners: The more complicated the sexual relationship, the higher the chance of contracting cervical cancer. Female friends should learn to protect themselves.

5. Maintain a cheerful spirit: Cervical erosion is a chronic disease. Although it is a risk factor for cervical cancer, it is not a precancerous lesion. You should maintain a good mood and actively seek treatment.

6. Regular gynecological examinations: Generally, married women should have a gynecological examination at least once a year, mainly to do cervical cytology testing to check for precancerous or cancerous lesions. If there are suspicious cells, further colposcopy biopsy can be performed.
