The cervix is an important reproductive organ for women. In daily life, more and more women are paying attention to the health of the cervix. If women do not take proper care of the cervix, it can easily lead to cervical diseases, such as common cervicitis. Cervicitis can be classified into acute and chronic types. Most chronic cervicitis is a transformation from acute cervicitis. However, what are the causes of cervicitis?
There are several reasons for getting cervicitis, including:
1. Cervical erosion. Many causes of cervicitis are caused by cervical erosion. There are many types of cervicitis caused by cervical erosion, such as simple type, papillary type, and granular type. According to the area and degree of cervical erosion, it can be divided into mild cervicitis, moderate cervicitis, and severe cervicitis.
2. Cervical glandular cyst. This reason is usually due to the gradual improvement of cervical erosion, where new epithelial tissue grows in the cervical area to cover the glandular duct opening, causing blockage in this area. This can lead to obstruction of the flow of secretions secreted by the glands, ultimately resulting in cervical gland swelling. The cervical inflammation caused by this situation is still quite serious, so women should seek timely treatment.
3. Mechanical injury and stimulation. When women undergo abortion or childbirth surgery, if cervical lacerations occur, it is easy to cause secondary infections, leading to the occurrence of cervicitis.
