Be careful if cervicitis is not cured for a long time and may turn into cervical cancer

Chronic cervicitis is the most common gynecological disease. It is often caused by pathogens invading the cervix after childbirth, abortion or surgical injury, and is transformed from acute cervicitis.

The treatment of acute cervicitis is often incomplete, and the pathogens hide in the cervical mucosa, forming chronic inflammation. Many women have no obvious symptoms of acute cervicitis, which is often ignored and directly leads to chronic cervicitis. About 20%-25% of patients with excessive vaginal discharge are caused by cervicitis. If the leucorrhea caused by inflammation is sticky and purulent, it is not conducive to the passage of sperm through the cervical canal, leading to infertility.

Cervicitis can cause serious consequences:

1Induce cervical cancer

According to the data of cancer prevention survey, 0.39% of patients with cervicitis have cervical cancer, but 29% of patients with metritis have cervical cancer. This shows that cervicitis is one of the causes of cervical cancer, which is not cured for a long time or is not cured for a long time.

2. Impact on the relationship between husband and wife

Severe cervicitis can cause severe pain or bleeding symptoms during sexual intercourse between couples, causing women to feel disgust, fear and rejection of sexual life, which can seriously affect the relationship and conflicts between couples.

3. Cause infertility

When suffering from cervicitis, the cervical secretions become thicker and form a mucus plug, which blocks the cervical canal and is not conducive to sperm penetration. When inflammation occurs, the secretions contain a large number of white blood cells, which can wrap and engulf sperm, affecting pregnancy and even causing infertility.

4Induced miscarriage

Cervicitis is also a cause of miscarriage, because long-term vaginal bleeding will affect the body's normal defense mechanism, making pregnant women prone to reproductive system infections, and long-term bleeding will promote the development of infection, leading to fetal membrane infection and premature rupture of the membrane. At this time, with the loss of amniotic fluid, the conditions for normal fetal growth and development are also gone, and miscarriage is inevitable.
