Husband, don’t be stupid and stop thinking about aphrodisiacs.

Cervical retention cyst is a cystic lesion formed by obstruction of the discharge of cervical gland secretions. It is a common benign cervical lesion. Cervical retention cysts may be related to factors such as chronic cervicitis, cervical injury, changes in hormone levels, and usually manifest as symptoms such as increased leucorrhea and bleeding after sexual intercourse.

1. Chronic inflammation stimulation

Long-term chronic cervicitis may lead to stenosis or obstruction of glandular ducts, and secretions cannot be discharged normally and form cysts. Patients may be accompanied by symptoms such as yellow purulent leucorrhea and lumbosacral pain. For treatment, you can follow the doctor's advice and use drugs such as Kanggyan Tablets, Baofukang Suppository, and Gynecology Qianjin Tablets to control inflammation. If necessary, use laser or cryotherapy to eliminate cysts.

2. Mechanical injury to the cervix

Operations such as childbirth and artificial abortion may cause damage to the cervical glands, causing scars to block the gland ducts during the healing process. These cysts are usually small and multiple and may be accompanied by abnormal menstruation. If there are no symptoms, no treatment is required. Larger cysts can be removed by electrocautery or LEEP surgery.

3. Abnormal hormone levels

Elevated estrogen levels may stimulate the cervical glands to secrete more vigorously, increasing the risk of blockage. Commonly seen during pregnancy or in people taking oral contraceptives, cysts are mostly temporary and can disappear on their own after delivery or withdrawal of medication. It is recommended to review cervical TCT and HPV screening regularly.

4. Congenital glandular duct malformation

A small number of patients have tortuous glandular duct structure due to congenital developmental abnormalities, and secretions accumulate to form cysts. Such cysts are often found after puberty and grow slowly. If fertility is affected, hysteroscopic cystostomy is required.

5. Infectious factors

Infections with mycoplasma, chlamydia and other pathogens can cause inflammatory adhesion of cervical glands. Patients often suffer from frequent urination and lower abdominal pain. They need to be tested for pathogens and then treated with antibiotics such as azithromycin tablets and doxycycline tablets.

You need to keep your perineum clean every day, avoid using irritating lotions, and pay attention to hygiene before and after sex. It is recommended to have an annual gynecological examination and HPV screening for women over 40 years old. If abnormal vaginal bleeding or increased discharge occurs, you should seek medical attention promptly to rule out cervical intraepithelial neoplasia and other lesions. The diet should be light, and appropriate supplementation of vitamin C and vitamin E can help enhance the resistance of the cervical mucosa.
