One of the most common diseases thatdoctors note in the beautiful half - this is the erosion of the cervix. In gynecology, several types of disease are distinguished. The first, less common, is congenital erosion of the cervix. The congenital form of the disease is not treated, because it does not grow into a malignant one. The second type of disease occurs more often - true erosion. Such a pathology can be present from birth, therefore it is called congenital. Usually, such a disease occurs without any specific symptoms, so it is often seen during adolescence during preventive examinations. Sometimes there is a third species - pseudo-erosion, as a consequence of true erosion.
Erosion of the cervix, the causes of whichare covered by the influence of other factors, are called true. Factors contributing to the development of the disease include vaginal dysbiosis, inflammation, hormonal disorders, previously transmitted sexually transmitted diseases, abortions. If we talk about the erosion of the cervix, the causes of which are not congenital, then we should rightly mention earlier the beginning of adolescent sexual life. As a rule, such girls erode after the first sexual intercourse, which teenagers themselves do not suspect.
What does cervical erosion look like?Externally, this is a region of intensely red color with smooth or uneven edges, which is located on the cervix. As inherently erosion is a damaged epithelium, such places are very difficult to heal because of the constant unfavorable influence from the outside. Erosion is difficult to cure, often after the occurrence of the site bleeds, on its surface a purulent discharge is accumulated.
In order to treat erosion of the cervix,the causes of the onset of the disease must be determined, first of all, otherwise it may recur after a while. If there are infectious diseases, then it is best to start with their treatment, and also make a biopsy - depending on the results of the biopsy the method of treatment depends, because the disease can develop into a cancerous disease or lead to infertility.
In this regard, for today, doctors resort toradical methods of treatment. Most often in conventional clinics, electrocoagulation is used - cauterization with electric current. At the site of cauterization, a new healthy cover forms, which displaces the "wrong" epithelium. Unfortunately, this method sins with a high percentage of relapses of the disease. After cauterization, women feel pain in the lower abdomen. The place of erosion is essentially an open wound, on which a crust (scab) is formed. Approximately in some weeks when the healthy epithelium increases, the scab is rejected. Throughout this time, bleeding and unpleasant discharge are possible - this period should be allowed to wait until the crust disappears. Another method is freezing. With this method, the affected area is frozen to a healthy layer and the normal cover of the cervical canal is restored.
More modern methods - treatment of the disease withusing the radio wave method. As a rule, treatment is carried out in special medical centers, since not every clinic can have equipment. This method is more sparing, painless, but also more expensive.
After the treatment of cervical erosion,the causes of occurrence should be controlled especially. In addition, the area of exposure should be completely restored, which can be done with the help of a course of candles. Only completely cured cervix can testify to the absence of problems in the sexual sphere of a woman.
