Cervical conization
This is the surgical removal of pathologically altered areas of the cervix. It serves as both a diagnostic and therapeutic method, allowing you to identify and remove atypical cells.
The cervical conization procedure is an important tool for the examination and treatment of pathological changes in the cervix. Doctors prescribe it for a detailed study of the structure of tissues and obtaining samples for histological examination.
Conization can be prescribed for conditions that could potentially lead to more serious problems. This includes true erosion and pseudoerosion of the cervix, polyps, cysts, dysplasia of varying degrees, postpartum trauma, hypertrophy, hyperkeratosis and ectropion. Conization helps to isolate and remove the affected area, while maintaining healthy tissues.
Before performing cervical conization, it is necessary to perform a number of studies: Consultation with a gynecologist and oncologist. Blood tests, including coagulogram. Colposcopy to assess the condition of the cervix. Microscopy of a vaginal smear. Backfilling of the vaginal cavity. A biopsy, if necessary.
Cervical conization is performed under local or general anesthesia and lasts about 20-30 minutes. The patient is placed on a gynecological chair, and special mirrors are inserted into the vagina to provide access to the cervix. The doctor then uses a colposcope to visualize the cervix and applies Lugol's solution to isolate pathological areas. After that, a cone-shaped excision of the affected area is performed using an ionizer. The removed tissues are sent for histological examination to determine the degree of changes. The procedure can be performed using various methods such as laser conization, loop conization (LEEP) or a cold knife.
The following instruments are used for cervical conization: Loop electrodes (LEEP) or lasers for precise tissue removal. A colposcope for visualization of the cervix.
After the procedure, the patient may experience mild discomfort and spotting. Full recovery usually takes about 4-6 weeks. At this time, it is recommended to avoid sexual activity and intense physical activity.

Stress-free menopause: how hormone therapy helps women
With age, women experience a natural decrease in reproductive function, known as menopause. This process takes a long time and is accompanied by changes in the physical and emotional state, hormonal restructuring and complete cessation of menstruation. On average, menopause (the so-called last menstruation in a woman's life) occurs at the age of 45-55 years, but its precursors may appear earlier, and the process of "restructuring" the body can last for several years. A decrease in the level of female sex hormones leads to unpleasant symptoms that not only worsen the quality of life, but can also contribute to the development of serious diseases. Although menopause is not a disease and does not require treatment, there are methods to improve well-being and prevent complications. One of these methods is menopausal hormone therapy (MGT). The decision on the need and time of MGT is made by a gynecologist. To understand whether such therapy is necessary for all women, it is important to understand the nature and characteristics of menopause.
