What are the common cervical diseases?

1. Cervicitis: Cervicitis is the most common cervical disease in women of childbearing age. Cervicitis is divided into two types: acute and chronic. When cervicitis occurs, the main symptom is an increase in leucorrhea, which is in the form of viscous liquid or purulent mucus, sometimes accompanied by or mixed with blood. It often occurs after childbirth, miscarriage, or surgery that damages the cervix.

2. Cervical polyps: Cervical polyps are a manifestation of chronic cervicitis. There is a layer of mucous membrane on the surface of the cervical canal. Due to the long-term stimulation of chronic inflammation, the cervical canal mucosa continues to proliferate and accumulate, and protrude from the basal layer of the mucosa to the external opening of the cervix, thus forming polyps. If cervical polyps grow at the cervical opening, they may hinder the sperm and egg from meeting and cause infertility.

3. Cervical hypertrophy: Cervical hypertrophy is also a type of chronic cervicitis. It is an inflammatory lesion caused by cervical infection and inflammation caused by pathogens such as mycoplasma and chlamydia.
