Squamous epithelial hyperplasia of the uterine cervix

Squamous epithelium is one of the cervical epithelial cell tissues. Cervical squamous epithelial hyperplasia, refers to the continuous proliferation of squamous epithelium in the vaginal part of the cervix, which grows between the columnar epithelium and the basement membrane and gradually replaces the columnar epithelium. The causes of cervical squamous epithelial hyperplasia include chronic inflammation, cervical glandular cysts, long-term infection with HPV virus, etc. 1. chronic inflammation: chronic inflammation of the cervix causes cervical local squamous epithelial hyperplasia due to cervical congestion and edema, and it is recommended to seek medical treatment promptly to clarify the cause. The patient can use Chinese herbal medicine to treat cervical inflammation under the doctor’s guidance; physical therapy has the characteristics of short course and good efficacy, and is suitable for patients with large erosion area and deep inflammatory infiltration, mainly including laser therapy, cryotherapy, microwave therapy, etc.; if the above therapy is not effective, the patient can follow the medical advice to use surgical therapy; 2, cervical glandular cysts: the deep part of the cervical gland appears mucus retention, forming size The cervical hypertrophy causes squamous epithelial hyperplasia. If the cysts are small and the patient has no other accompanying symptoms, treatment is usually not needed. If accompanied by multiple cysts, cervical inflammation, cervical erosion, along with obvious discomfort symptoms such as increased leucorrhea, foul-smelling secretions, lumbago, etc., if the cysts are larger, it is recommended to seek medical attention in a timely manner, and according to the size of the cysts, choose appropriate surgical methods such as microwave therapy, laser therapy, self-coagulation knife and other physical therapy; 3. Long-term infection with HPV virus: infection with HPV virus stimulates cervical squamous epithelial cells to produce inflammatory lesions , proliferative lesions, and even carcinoma, cervical exfoliation cytology testing (TCT) and human papillomavirus (HPV) should be performed to rule out malignant lesions. If infected with HPV, the patient’s own immunity needs to be improved. There is a lack of effective clinical treatment, but HPV infection can be prevented in advance. Patients should pay attention to enhancing physical exercise, maintaining healthy lifestyle habits, improving their own immunity, paying attention to a balanced diet and nutrition, in addition to regular TCT and HPV examinations at regular intervals to avoid atypical hyperplasia. Married women need to pay attention to gynecological checkups and timely treatment when abnormalities are found to avoid delaying the disease.
