The cervix is an important part of the female body, and if one does not pay attention to protecting their cervix, it is easy to develop cervicitis. Moreover, inflammation will gradually develop and if not effectively controlled, it can easily turn into cervical erosion. Cervical erosion can be treated through surgery. Can vaginal delivery still be achieved after undergoing cervical erosion surgery?
Whether vaginal delivery can be achieved after cervical erosion surgery depends on the actual condition of the pregnant woman. If conization is performed during the treatment of cervical erosion, scars will be left in the cervical area. And the skin at this scar site will become harder, making it easy to tear during vaginal delivery. In this case, vaginal delivery is not recommended as it may cause secondary damage to the cervix.
If other surgical methods are used in the treatment of cervical erosion without leaving scars on the cervical area, and the surgical site is small and recovers quickly, then vaginal delivery can be achieved. However, in this case, the health status of the cervix must be checked before delivery to confirm that it will not cause harm to the cervix, and then vaginal delivery can be adopted.
In fact, whether a pregnant woman can give birth naturally is influenced by many factors, and the condition of the cervix is just one of them. There are many other factors besides that. For example, the safety status and size of the fetus, as well as the physical and emotional factors of the pregnant woman, can all affect the mode of delivery.
