Is cervical cyst serious? What are the dangers?

Cervical cyst is a common gynecological disease, but if women do not receive timely treatment, it will cause a series of diseases and even endanger their lives. It will affect the couple's sex life, cause infertility, cause other complications, and affect fetal development. Women need timely treatment and do a good job of protecting themselves.

1. What are the dangers of a symptomatic, gradually enlarging cervical cyst if it is not treated?

Harm 1: Affecting the life of couples

After a woman is infected with cervical cysts, her sexual life will be greatly affected and the quality of her sexual life will be reduced. Because some patients with cervical cysts have clinical symptoms, such as frequent itching and burning sensation in the vagina, and vaginal bleeding during sexual intercourse, which puts both couples in a state of tension. The fear of sexual intercourse has long been a problem, which has seriously affected the relationship between the couple.

Harm 2: Infertility

Women with cervical cysts will produce a large amount of secretions in their bodies, and the white blood cells in these secretions will engulf sperm, which will greatly reduce the number of sperm, and also greatly reduce the number and vitality of sperm, making it impossible for the egg to combine normally with the sperm to form a fertilized egg, thus leading to infertility; in addition, the spread of pathogenic bacteria may affect the fallopian tubes and ovaries of women. If these two parts are affected, it will easily affect the female's pregnancy, especially if the fallopian tubes are blocked or unsmooth, the impact on female pregnancy will be greater; if cervical cysts are not treated for a long time, they will be stimulated by chronic inflammation for a long time, so that the cervical tissue will repeatedly become congested and edematous, inflammatory cell infiltration and connective tissue hyperplasia will occur, resulting in cervical hypertrophy. In severe cases, the cervix can be more than 1 times larger than a normal cervix. Severe inflammation can lead to menstrual abnormalities or even infertility.

Hazard 3: Other diseases

Most women are infected with cervical cysts because of bacterial infection. The bacteria will spread and infect other parts. Usually, cervical cysts may be complicated by other chronic cervicitis. At the same time, the pathogenic bacteria of cervical cysts may also move downward and cause women to be infected with pelvic inflammatory disease, adnexitis and other diseases.

Harm 4. Affecting fetal development

If you find that you have cervical cyst infection after pregnancy, you should pay special attention to it, because the pathogenic bacteria of cervical cyst may penetrate the uterus and enter the uterus, which will have an adverse effect on the development of the fetus and may cause risks such as miscarriage and premature birth.

2. Self-protection of cervical cyst

① Pay attention to personal hygiene: change and wash underwear frequently, use a basin per person, and wash the vulva with warm water every day to prevent the invasion of pathogens;

② Control sexual intercourse: Have sexual intercourse in moderation and avoid excessive fatigue. Pay attention to sexual hygiene of the couple, clean thoroughly before intercourse, especially pay attention to cleaning the smegma of the penis;

③Be cautious with abortions: Try to control the number of abortions, take contraceptive precautions, and avoid multiple cervical interventions to avoid damage. In the last resort, choose a regular hospital to prevent cross infection caused by poor sterilization.

④ Pay attention to hygiene: Pay special attention to hygiene during menstruation and avoid sex during menstruation to avoid gynecological diseases.
