A 5-mm cervical Nabothian cyst can be treated using methods such as laser therapy or medication. Physical therapy is currently considered the optimal treatment approach; for moderate-to-severe cervical ectropion (formerly termed “cervical erosion”), options include cryotherapy and laser ablation—the specific modality selected depends on the severity of the ectropion. Wound healing typically requires 4–8 weeks; during this period, patients should maintain external genital hygiene and abstain from sexual intercourse.
