Will chronic cervicitis affect pregnancy?

Chronic cervicitis may affect pregnancy, but in most cases pregnancy can be normal after standard treatment. Chronic cervicitis is mainly caused by pathogenic infection, cervical injury and other factors, which may change the properties of cervical mucus or cause fallopian tube inflammation, thereby affecting pregnancy.

Cervical secretions in patients with chronic cervicitis may become sticky or contain inflammatory cells, which prevents sperm from passing through the cervical canal. Long-term inflammation may cause ascending infection to cause fallopian tube inflammation, leading to fallopian tube adhesion or blockage. Some patients may experience bleeding or abnormal vaginal discharge after intercourse, and these symptoms may affect the frequency and quality of sexual life. Mild inflammation has less impact on pregnancy, but moderate to severe inflammation may significantly reduce the chance of natural conception.

For patients with chronic cervicitis who have cervical stenosis or fallopian tube obstruction, it will be significantly more difficult to get pregnant. This kind of situation is often accompanied by symptoms such as lower abdominal pain and lumbosacral soreness, and needs to be diagnosed through gynecological examination combined with ultrasound or fallopian tube imaging. A very small number of patients may have cervical tissue fibrosis due to long-term inflammation, causing cervical insufficiency and increasing the risk of miscarriage.

Patients with chronic cervicitis should undergo routine leucorrhea, mycoplasma culture and other examinations before preparing for pregnancy. After diagnosis, Baofukang suppository, anti-uterine tablets and other drugs can be used to control inflammation. During treatment, avoid bathing and sexual intercourse, and keep the vulva clean and dry. During the pregnancy preparation stage, it is recommended to monitor the cervical mucus properties and ovulation status. If you have not been pregnant for six months, you need to check the patency of the fallopian tubes. Avoid frequent vaginal douching in daily life, choose cotton underwear and change it in time, and supplement vitamin C appropriately to enhance mucosal repair ability.
