I believe that many women, after understanding the clinical symptoms and treatment methods of gynecological diseases, would not wish to develop gynecological diseases or hope to be diagnosed in the early stages of their illness. So, can gynecological examination detect cervicitis?
Gynecological examination can diagnose cervicitis. Cervicitis can be divided into acute cervicitis and chronic cervicitis. If a woman suffers from acute cervicitis, during gynecological examination, it can be seen that her cervix is eroded or swollen with congestion, and there may be purulent secretions discharged from the cervical canal. When the cervix is touched, women may feel pain.
If a woman suffers from chronic cervicitis, during gynecological examinations, her cervix may show varying degrees of erosion, polyps, cysts, hypertrophy, eversion, or purulent discharge at the cervical opening, which may feel hard when touched. Women with severe cervicitis can also receive a definitive diagnosis through cervical biopsy.
Women suffering from cervicitis may be related to mechanical stimulation or loss. Some people may experience cervical inflammation due to conditions such as abortion, diagnostic curettage, childbirth, etc., where the uterus has been damaged and inflammation has occurred. In addition, if women are infected with bacteria during childbirth or sexual activity, it may also lead to cervical inflammation.
