Pathology of the cervix unites a large group of diseases with which thousands of women are treated. This group of cervical pathologies includes benign, precancerous and cancerous.
Cervical erosion and cervical dysplasia are common diseases that are included in this group.
Cervical erosion
Erosion of the cervix is a type of disease of the female genital organs, which is characterized by a change in the integrity of the mucous membrane of the cervix, in particular, its integrity, in the form of small erosions. This is the most common diagnosis in gynecology. According to statistics, every second woman is diagnosed with cervical erosion. The site of the appearance of erosion is a vulnerable place and the point of formation of a bacterial infection, which can then be transferred to the uterus, fallopian tubes, and ovaries. As a result, a focus of chronic infection is formed.
In the appearance of cervical erosion, many factors are felt, the main factors include:
- Early pregnancy and childbirth.
- Early initiation of intimate life in girls.
- A large number of sexual partners without using contraception.
- Mechanical traumatization of the mucous membrane in women due to turnovers and operations.
- Hormonal disorders.
- Taking hormonal drugs without the supervision of a doctor with a violation of the scheme.
Symptoms of cervical erosion:
- Strong and voluminous secretions with an intense smell, sometimes with the addition of blood or pus.
- Pain in the lower part of the abdomen during intimacy, menstruation and going to the toilet in a small way.
- Prolonged menstruation.
- Diagnosis of cervical erosion.
During an examination by a gynecologist at a consultation at the Medeira clinic, the doctor can see visualization of the erosive area on the mucous membrane, colposcopy, cytology
At the Medeira clinic, gynecologists use simple observation of cervical pathology in infertile women under 24 years of age. If clinical manifestations are present, medical treatment is prescribed. With severe erosion, cryodestruction, diathermocoagulation is prescribed.
cervical dysplasia
Dysplasia of the cervix is a disease characterized by a change in the structure of the epithelium of the cervix. This is a group of precancerous diseases. Dysplasia of the cervix, depending on the course, can proceed easily and be of a mild degree, proceed moderately and have an average degree, and proceed heavily and, accordingly, have a severe degree.
HPV (the so-called human papilloma virus) plays an important and fundamental role in the appearance of cervical dysplasia. The most dangerous are HPV 16 and HPV 18 subtypes of the papilloma virus.
Along with this, the infectious process, hormone level disorders, traumatization of the cervical surface are also important in the development of the disease. If cervical dysplasia is not treated, there is a risk of turning into cancer.
How is the human papillomavirus transmitted?
The human papilloma virus is transmitted in the case of contact of the mucous membrane with an infected person, mainly through sexual contact. According to the statistics of gynecologists of the Medeira clinic, in the case of early diagnosis and treatment, the development of cervical erosion can be stopped.
Diagnosis of cervical dysplasia
During the examination, the gynecologist at the Medeira clinic determines the visualization of the pathological area, after which he performs colposcopy, cytology, tests (for the presence of HPV, (biopsy), screening for cervical cancer).
In the treatment of cervical dysplasia at the Meleira clinic, gynecologists prescribe conservative and operative treatment.
In medium and severe stages, cryodestruction and diathermocoagulation are used. In severe stages, surgical treatment may be performed
One of the frequent questions that a gynecologist is asked about dysplasia is: Is dysplasia a cancer? We would like to reassure you, dysplasia is not cancer, but if not properly treated, it can turn into cancer.
