Common misunderstandings in the treatment of cervical cancer

What are the misconceptions about the treatment of cervical cancer? I believe many people have this question. There are some misconceptions about cervical cancer. Faced with various cervical cancer detection methods and various confusing statements, we must pay attention. Let us learn about the misconceptions about the treatment of cervical cancer .

One of the misconceptions about the treatment of cervical cancer is that cervical erosion will turn into cervical cancer. "Cervical erosion" is a problem that troubles many women. Now the obstetrics and gynecology community has abandoned the term "cervical erosion" and changed it to "cervical columnar epithelial ectopia (columnarectopy)", believing that it is not a pathological change, but a physiological change of the cervix. However, due to long-term habit, many doctors have not changed their minds and still call it "cervical erosion". What's more, some medical institutions and commercial advertisements make a fuss about it for economic benefits, making people more panic about "cervical erosion". If "cervical erosion" is found during a gynecological examination, don't panic, follow the regular cervical disease screening.

Treat cervical erosion as a precursor of cervical cancer. For a long time, clinicians have regarded chronic cervicitis and cervical erosion as synonyms, and actively used various physical treatments such as laser, freezing, microwave, and even Leep knife to treat cervical diseases. These wrong treatments not only bring physical pain and economic losses to healthy women, but also bring quite serious side effects. If young women who have not yet given birth are overtreated with Leep, they may have a double risk of "miscarriage or premature birth" in future pregnancies! The essence of the so-called "cervical erosion" is the physiological phenomenon of cervical columnar epithelium ectopy, not a disease, and does not require treatment.
