The cervix of a woman is also closely related to her sexuality and reproduction. From the fetal stage until the woman grows old, the cervix is involved in women's health, reproductive health, and even family happiness. But some women may experience cervical fracture, so what does this segment of the cervix mean?
Cervical fracture, also known as cervical tear, usually occurs during childbirth. Due to the strong immunity of the mother, the cervix may tear. Especially for elderly primiparous women, if there is excessive resistance, the weight of the fetus is too heavy, or the fetal position is abnormal, it will strongly stimulate the cervix of the mother, causing damage and tearing.
If the cervical laceration is relatively shallow and the amount of bleeding is not significant during childbirth, it is difficult to detect it immediately. If the mother's tear is deep and bleeding is excessive, the midwife can detect the tear on the cervix through examination. Cervical lacerations require immediate suturing upon discovery, as the doctor's suturing technique affects the healing of the cervix.
If the suturing is relatively neat, the torn cervix will recover well and quickly, its function will not be affected, and the scars will not be very obvious. However, if the laceration is deep and the suture is irregular, or the wound is shallow and not found and sutured in time, it will affect the healing of the cervix, and may eventually split into several segments to form an old cervical laceration. This kind of cervix is very vulnerable to infection in the future, and the incidence rate of cervical cancer will also rise accordingly.
