Cervical erosion is a common gynecological disease that not only brings a lot of discomfort to women's bodies, but may also trigger other gynecological diseases. Due to the need to conceive a baby in utero, many women with cervical erosion may worry about affecting their fertility. Will mild cervical erosion affect pregnancy?
Cervical erosion does have an impact on pregnancy, but women with mild erosion need not worry. As long as there is no infection, it generally does not affect pregnancy. In fact, cervical erosion is related to the increase of estrogen levels in the body. Under the stimulation of estrogen, the epithelium in the cervical canal undergoes ectopia, leading to some physiological changes in the cervical and vaginal areas, which generally do not require treatment.
But if cervical erosion is very severe and infection has already occurred, causing inflammation of the vagina and cervix, it will have a significant impact on pregnancy. If cervical erosion continues to develop, it will lead to cervical adhesions, which will hinder the passage of sperm into the vagina, thereby reducing the chances of conception.
Moreover, inflammation in the cervix and vagina will continue to rise, and if pregnant, the inflammation will enter the uterine cavity and affect fetal development. Therefore, women with cervical erosion should still undergo regular check ups to avoid the condition developing too quickly and not being detected in a timely manner. If the erosion is already severe, it can be treated through surgical methods.
