Nowadays, women attach great importance to reproductive health. Some women have the need for childbirth, but if cervical erosion is detected, they need timely treatment. Doctors recommend surgical treatment, but women are concerned that surgery may affect their future fertility. So, does cervical erosion surgery affect fertility?
Cervical erosion surgery, usually using laser, has no impact on future fertility. After surgery, women must pay attention to preventing infection. If infection occurs after surgery, the wound healing will be slow, and the elasticity of the cervix will be poor. If pregnancy results in a baby, it will affect the dilation of the cervical opening. Cervical erosion can cause inflammation after surgery. If infected, it can also invade the pelvic cavity, adnexa, and fallopian tubes, which can affect pregnancy.
After undergoing cervical erosion surgery, women need to take anti-inflammatory drugs for 3-5 days, while also paying attention to cleanliness and hygiene. They should clean their external genitalia with warm water daily and change their underwear frequently to keep them dry at all times. Then for one month after the surgery, sexual activity is prohibited and bathing is not required. Pay attention to avoiding stimulating foods in diet, and also pay attention to follow-up examinations one month after surgery. Generally, as long as the recovery is good after surgery, there will be no problem with future fertility.
If cervical erosion is detected, it is recommended that women follow the doctor's advice. If there is a need for fertility, they should also communicate with the doctor in a timely manner. We believe that the doctor can take reasonable measures according to the situation.
