The cervix, located in the lower part of the uterus in the female body's abdomen, is also known as the cervix because it connects the uterine body to the vagina. The normal cervix is harder than other surrounding tissues, but if it is found to be in a very hard state, it means that the cervix has undergone a certain degree of damage or lesion. In medicine, imbalances in male and female hormones, uterine inflammation, or artificial abortion can all cause the cervix to become hard. So, what kind of harm can a very hard cervix cause to women?
What are the hazards of having a hard cervix
1. The cervix is very hard and may affect the normal production of layers, which can easily cause tearing injuries to the cervix and make it difficult for the cervix to open.
2. If the hardening of the cervix is caused by abnormal secretion of estrogen by the body, it will affect the natural shape of the cervix over time.
3. If the cervix is very hard and left untreated, it may lead to worsening of cervical lesions, and in severe cases, there may even be a possibility of cancer.
4. Affects normal marital life, and in severe cases can lead to infertility.
The reason why the cervix is very hard
1. Cervical diseases: cervicitis, cervical erosion, cervical cysts, and partial uterine lesions.
2. Induced abortion: Induced abortion can affect the elasticity of the cervix, so it is important to minimize the damage caused by induced abortion to the cervix.
3. Endocrine disorders: Insufficient secretion of estrogen in women's bodies can cause the cervical opening to harden.
The cervix is an important component of the female uterus, which can affect the overall health status of the entire uterus. Therefore, adult women must regularly check or self check the status of the cervix. Once the cervix becomes hard or there is a problem with the uterus, they should promptly go to a regular hospital for examination and active treatment. Ensuring normal uterine health is essential for oneself and the entire family to have a happy, fulfilling, and healthy quality of life.
