For patients who are suspected of having cervical cancer, abnormal cervical cytology, or suspected of having cervical specific inflammation (such as when cervical tuberculosis is present), a cervical biopsy is performed. This involves removing a small piece or pieces of tissue from the cervix for pathological examination to help the doctor determine the diagnosis and thus decide on further treatment options. The procedure is usually performed 3-7 days after menstruation. After routine disinfection of the vulva, vagina and cervix, a biopsy forceps is used, usually under direct colposcopy, to remove several small pieces of tissue according to the suspicious area of the lesion or at the 3, 6, 9 and 12 points of the squamous-columnar junction of the cervix, and the tissue is placed in 10% formalin solution. The tissue is fixed and sent to the pathology department for biopsy to make a pathological diagnosis. The biopsy site may bleed, and the doctor will apply hemostatic drugs or gauze compression to stop the bleeding. Because the wound needs to heal, and in order to prevent infection, sexual intercourse, tub bathing and swimming are prohibited for 2 weeks after the procedure, and antibiotics are used as appropriate according to medical advice. After the cervical biopsy, rest properly and keep the perineum clean. If the cervical wound heals normally after 2 weeks, you can resume sexual life.
