A brittle cervix may be cervical cancer, but it may also be caused by other reasons, and further examination is needed to confirm this.
If the patient suffers from chronic cervicitis, vaginitis and other gynecological diseases, the cervical area will become brittle due to long-term stimulation by inflammatory factors. In addition, some women may also suffer from contact bleeding due to multiple births, or uterine operations that cause the cervix to become brittle.
For cervical cancer, as cancer cells invade normal tissues, symptoms of infection will occur, resulting in brittle cervical tissues, while patients will also have symptoms such as foul-smelling discharge, pelvic pain, frequent urination and painful urination.
Therefore, brittle cervix is not necessarily cervical cancer, patients can go to the hospital for TCT and HPV examination, and if necessary, colposcopic biopsy to rule out the possibility of cervical cancer.
