hi.. MY SISTER,aged 34 yrs, is having cervical erosion and 8 months back tested with pap smear,got hpv positive..can u suggest what treatment will be best?previously twice cryotherapy was done.. she doesnt want hysterectomy to be done, can u please let me know good gynaecologist in bangalore or hyderabad who can treat this without operating.
Hi HPV is a viral infection that predisposes women to developing cervical cancer. If cancerous or precancerous lesion are already visible, then I will advise she goes for total hysterectomy before the lesions become too advanced. Other treatment options are radiotherapy or a combination of radiotherapy and chemotherapy. These two are reserved for cases which are advanced and surgery cannot take care of. Surgery in time is the best to take off the primary lesion. If this is done, she will live a normal life with no fear of metastasis or worrying about cervical cancer in the future. Hope my answer will help you Best regards
