After marriage, 90% of women will face this situation! Doctor: To stay away from diseases, do this.
Two people enter the hall of marriage because of love, and after getting married, married life is essential. But for many women, it may not be a good thing, as gynecological diseases may follow, especially some inflammation, troubling many women. Among the many gynecological diseases, the most common is cervicitis. It is no exaggeration to say that basically 95% of women after marriage, that is, those who have married life, will have this condition.
After seeing this, many people may feel that the author is talking nonsense, but in fact, this is true. A doctor described that almost every woman who visits the clinic has cervicitis to varying degrees. However, many women know very little about cervicitis, especially the causes of its onset, and even fewer know the truth about its occurrence. It is especially important for women to be aware of the following points about cervicitis.
The occurrence of cervicitis is actually to protect you.
The uterus is a unique bodily feature of women, and the cervix is the first line of defense for the uterus, equivalent to a door guard. Its main function is to block external bacteria from entering the uterine cavity at all times. For this reason, the body deploys some inflammatory cells that clear pathogens long term on the surface of the cervix to resist the invasion of external bacteria. Many people might say that the cervix must have many inflammation-related issues. Doctors say that although in such cases the cervix looks to be in an inflammatory state, it does not necessarily mean that the cervix is inflamed.
Most cervicitis does not require treatment.
As mentioned above, many cases of cervicitis are not indicative of inflammation of the cervix; it is simply the presence of some inflammatory cells. In fact, the vast majority of cervicitis cases are basically asymptomatic, with only occasional increased or thickened vaginal discharge. In such cases, there is no need for medical examination or treatment. Moreover, blind treatment may damage the cervix’s self-defense ability, causing harm. However, if symptoms like swelling, heat, or redness are found, timely medical treatment is necessary.
Cervicitis will not lead to cancer.
When talking about cancer, many people immediately become anxious and fearful, worrying whether their body has developed some condition that might eventually lead to cancer, especially for women, as cervicitis is a worrying concern due to the fear of potential malignant transformation leading to cervical cancer.
In reality, cervicitis is a type of chronic inflammation that exists over a long period. If it does not become severe, it is merely the presence of inflammation and will not likely lead to cancer. Cervical cancer develops due to long-term persistent infection with the HPV virus, which is unrelated to cervicitis. However, these two conditions are closely related to married life, so hygiene during married life must be attended to.
The effectiveness of medications for treating cervicitis is limited.
In many people’s minds, once inflammation occurs in the body, medication is needed for treatment to prevent the inflammation from worsening. However, in reality, some medications for treating cervicitis only provide symptomatic relief, treating the symptoms without addressing the root cause. As a result, many people find that after taking medication or treatment for a period, cervicitis occurs repeatedly.
This phenomenon is also due to the presence of bacteria or microorganisms in the female genital area during married life, which means cervicitis persists.
Although cervicitis cannot be completely cured, there are preventive measures that women can take to mitigate the occurrence of cervicitis. For women, the most important thing is to maintain cleanliness in the genital area, which can reduce bacterial invasion, thereby lessening the occurrence of cervicitis. Simple actions like frequently changing underwear, keeping clean when showering, and reducing the intake of spicy and oily foods can help in preventing cervicitis and alleviating inflammation.
