    Cervicitis can usually be cured. Cervicitis can be improved through drug treatment, physical therapy and other methods. Most of the prognosis is good. The main influencing factors include the type of pathogen, the severity of the disease, and the patient's immunity.

    1. Drug treatment

    For bacterial cervicitis, antibiotics such as doxycycline hydrochloride tablets and azithromycin capsules can be used as directed by the doctor. People with chlamydia infection are recommended to use minocycline hydrochloride capsules and levofloxacin tablets. People infected with Neisseria gonorrhoeae usually use ceftriaxone sodium for injection. Candida cervicitis requires the use of fluconazole capsules or clotrimazole vaginal tablets. During the period of medication, sexual intercourse must be prohibited and leucorrhea routine must be reviewed regularly.

    2. Physical therapy

    When chronic cervicitis is accompanied by cervical hypertrophy or Knott's cyst, physical therapies such as laser and cryotherapy can be used. High-frequency electrosurgical circular resection is suitable for moderate cervical columnar epithelial ectopia. Vaginal discharge will occur after treatment, and the perineum needs to be kept clean. Bathing and sexual intercourse are prohibited for 2 months after surgery.

    3. Immune regulation

    Recurrent cervicitis may be related to low immune function. Immunomodulators such as thymosin enteric-coated tablets and Pidotimod oral solution can be used in combination. At the same time, it is necessary to ensure daily intake of high-quality protein and vitamin C, and to conduct appropriate aerobic exercise to enhance physical fitness.

    4. Traditional Chinese Medicine Conditioning

    For moist heat injection type, you can choose Fuke Qianjin Tablets and Sophora Sophorae Gel for external use. Shenling Baizhu Pills are suitable for those with spleen deficiency and dampness, and Guizhi Fuling Capsules for blood stasis syndrome. Traditional Chinese medicine fumigation and washing can use Phellodendron cypress, Atractylodes, and other heat-clearing and detoxifying herbs.

    5. Treat partners together

    Cervicitis caused by gonorrhea or chlamydia infection requires simultaneous treatment by sexual partners to avoid cross-infection. The use of condoms during treatment can reduce the risk of infection, and pathogens need to be reviewed 3 months after recovery.

    Patients with cervicitis should choose cotton underwear and change it every day, and avoid using irritating vaginal washes. Change sanitary napkins frequently during menstruation to keep the vulva dry and clean. Reduce the intake of spicy foods and drink appropriate amounts of yogurt to regulate vaginal flora. Regular gynecological examinations can detect cervical lesions early, and women over 30 years old are recommended to combine them with HPV screening. During the acute attack, you should rest in bed and avoid strenuous exercise that aggravates pelvic congestion.
