Cervicitis is a familiar disease that occurs in daily life and has a serious impact on patients. We must prevent it reasonably in our daily lives.
Hazards of cervicitis
1. Increasing the probability of cancer transformation: Generally speaking, simply suffering from cervicitis does not pose a significant threat to health, but symptoms such as increased vaginal discharge, lower back pain, and lower abdominal distension caused by cervicitis often affect people's emotions. From the perspective of cancer prevention, cervicitis is closely related to cervical cancer. According to cancer prevention survey data, 0.39% of patients without cervical erosion suffer from cervical cancer, and 2.05% of patients with cervical erosion suffer from cervical cancer.
2. Complications: after suffering from chronic cervicitis, the pathogen of chronic cervicitis can rise to the para uterine ligament that causes endometritis, and the lymphatic vessel spreads to cause chronic osteopanitis. When the inflammation affects the bladder triangle, the diseases of the urinary system will cause irritation symptoms such as pain in urination, frequency of urination, and difficulty in urination.

Infertility: When chronic cervicitis, especially moderate to severe chronic cervicitis, occurs, the cervical secretions significantly increase, the texture is sticky, and there are many white blood cells, which have a negative impact on sperm motility, hinder sperm from entering the uterine cavity, and affect pregnancy.
4. Abortion: Chronic cervicitis is also a cause of miscarriage. Cervicitis alters tissue, reduces elasticity, and severe cervicitis, which can also affect marital life if the production process is not smooth.
