Cervical changes and genital warts often cause no discomfort and are found by chance during a routine examination. That is why a clarifying examination is always carried out before treatment: a smear and, if needed, colposcopy and biopsy. Only then is the treatment method chosen.
Treatment methods
- Laser — precise and controlled treatment with minimal damage to the surrounding tissue.
- Radiowave — gentle effect on the tissue and relatively fast healing.
- Electrocoagulation — treating the altered tissue with electric current.
- Cryotherapy — freezing with low temperature.
The choice of method depends on the size, location and nature of the change and on the woman's future pregnancy plans. There is no universal “best method” — each case is assessed separately.
After the procedure
- avoid intercourse for a certain time;
- avoid swimming pools, saunas and baths;
- limit heavy physical exertion;
- come to the follow-up visit on time.
The doctor sets the exact timing depending on the scope of the procedure.
Why treatment should not be delayed
Some cervical changes can deepen over time, while genital warts increase in number and can be transmitted. Early treatment both simplifies therapy and reduces the risk of affecting a future pregnancy.
