What are the harms of cervical inflammation? Is it serious for women to have cervical inflammation? Many women are no longer unfamiliar with cervical inflammation. Cervical inflammation is a very common gynecological disease nowadays. However, some women are not very aware of the harms of cervical inflammation. Below, experts from a Xi'an gynecological hospital will specifically explain to us what are the harms of cervical inflammation.
Cervical inflammation is one of the most common gynecological diseases in women. It can lead to female infertility, and increased vaginal discharge is the most common, sometimes even the only symptom of acute cervical inflammation. Experts from the Xi'an Sankin Hospital point out: Cervical inflammation generally does not heal on its own and needs to be treated at a professional hospital. Moreover, the harm of cervical inflammation is significant. Once diagnosed with cervical inflammation, treatment should be sought at a hospital as soon as possible. If acute cervical inflammation is left untreated for a long time, it may develop into chronic cervical inflammation, which carries risks of infertility and cancerous changes.
**What are the harms of cervical inflammation?**
Generally speaking, increased vaginal discharge is the most common, sometimes even the only symptom of acute cervical inflammation, often presenting as purulent. Since cervical inflammation often coexists with urethritis, cystitis, or acute vaginitis, acute endometritis, etc., other symptoms of cervical inflammation may be masked, such as varying degrees of lower abdominal and sacral pain, and bladder irritation symptoms. In cases of acute gonococcal cervicitis, there may be varying degrees of fever and increased white blood cells. Regarding the harms of cervical inflammation, women should have a correct understanding. Generally speaking, simple cervical inflammation does not pose a significant threat to health, but the symptoms such as increased vaginal discharge, back pain, and pelvic heaviness caused by cervical inflammation can affect mood. From a cancer prevention perspective, cervical inflammation is closely related to cervical cancer.
Specifically, the harms of cervical inflammation mainly include the following points:
1. **Affecting the quality of sexual life**
Severe cervical inflammation can affect the quality of sexual life, causing women to experience pain and discomfort during intercourse, leading to aversion towards sexual activity, thereby disrupting marital relations and affecting the relationship between couples.
2. **Likely to cause miscarriage**
Cervical inflammation is also a cause of miscarriage. Chronic cervical inflammation can lead to habitual miscarriages because it causes tissue changes, reducing elasticity, making labor difficult, and thus leading to miscarriage.
3. **Causing infertility**
About 20-25% of patients with excessive vaginal discharge are due to cervical inflammation. If the inflammation causes thick, purulent vaginal discharge, it can hinder the passage of sperm through the cervical canal, easily leading to female infertility.
4. **Inducing cervical cancer**
According to statistics, women with cervical inflammation have a cervical cancer incidence rate ten times higher than those without cervical inflammation. Long-term untreated or persistent cervical inflammation is considered a factor in the development of cervical cancer.
**Recommended Technology**: LEEP Knife Technology at Xi'an Sankin Hospital for the active treatment of female cervical diseases
LEEP technology uses a series of high-frequency electrocautery knives with different shapes to treat various cervical lesions. It can continuously remove high-risk areas of cervical cancer development, effectively preventing cervical cancer. This surgery is safe and effective, with few complications, and it retains complete, continuous specimens for pathological examination, significantly reducing the misdiagnosis and missed diagnosis rates of cervical cancer.
**Advantages of LEEP Technology**:
1. **Precision**: Achieves very precise surgical results that traditional electrocautery cannot.
2. **Minimally invasive**: Pressure-free cutting, minimal tissue damage, rarely forms fibrosis, and rarely causes postoperative scarring.
3. **Safety**: No need for negative electrodes or ground wires, eliminating the risk of electric shock and burns.
4. **Less pain**: No anesthesia or only local infiltration anesthesia is needed, with fewer complications, less bleeding, and less infection.
5. **No tissue tearing or carbonization**: About two-thirds of patients can obtain tissue specimens that do not affect pathological examination.
