Possibly: But not the infectious type the irritative, inflammatory type as some women are irritated by them or can even be allergic to them. Cervicitis means inflammation of the cervix.

Question 2

No: Both of those conditions are caused by Human Papilloma Virus which is sexually transmitted. Spread can be reduced by the use of condoms. Additionally you can get immunized with Gardisil, which can prevent genital warts and certain HPV strains associated with some cervical cancers.

Accepted Answer

Hyperprolcatinemia?: Elevated prolactin can cause no periods or scant periods.  Other possible causes include pcos as well.  You need to see your doc.  Cervicitis would most likely not be related!

Question 4

can uti lead into cervicitis if not treated right away?

Accepted Answer

No: Uti usually means cystitis, this can result in a kidney infection if not treated, but not cervicitis, an inflammation or infection of the cervix.

Question 5

i am experiencing  lower abdominal pain (side: right)  and leg pain.i went to my ob to check if it is uti, but result said otherwise.a speculum was inserted on my vagina and fluid gushed out.i was said to have cervicitis.does it lead to cancer?

Accepted Answer

STD? PID?: Cervicitis does not lead to cancer. However, dysplasia caused by human papillomavirus (HPV) can mimic cervicitis and could be pre-cancerous. Probably testing included a pap smear and perhaps HPV testing. You also mention abdominal pain (PID?), and you also should have been tested for gonorrhea and chlamydia, which are common causes of cervicitis and PID. Check all this with your doctor. Good luck!

Question 6

Accepted Answer

No: Emergency contraceptives do not cause infertility.

Question 7

Accepted Answer

Irregular menses: Irregular menses may be a sign of ovulation problems. Oral contraceptives have not been shown to increase infertility rates. See your gyn for help in getting pregnant.

Question 8

can breakthrough bleeding from oral contraceptive lead to "reparative" changes on pap test?

Accepted Answer

Sometimes there are: Words on pathology reports that are more descriptive than useful.  What we are mostly concerned about is whether there are pre-malignant cells, dysplasia, present.  Bleeding should not be linked to "reparative changes" and it sounds like nothing to worry over, but I have never seen that word on a pap smear path report.  I've seen many.

Question 9

could cervicitis come back once it's gone?

Accepted Answer

Possibly: Cervicitis is inflammation of the cervix, usually caused by a bacterial infection of the cervix.  It can cause spotting and an unusual discharge.  It is often treated with antibiotics.  It can come back, but you will probably need an examination to know for sure.
