简要总结
Women with Low-Grade Squamous Intraepithelial Lesion (LSIL) on Pap smear have a risk of progression to High-Grade Squamous Intraepithelial Lesion (HSIL). Studies report that about 13% of untreated LSIL cases progress to HSIL within 2 years, so close monitoring is essential to prevent cervical carcinoma. In modern medicine, LSIL may be managed by observation, cryotherapy, excision treatment. The Unani system of medicine includes many formulations with anticancer, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and wound-healing activities, though clinical studies are limited. Marham-e-Dakhilyun is one such formulation, known for its anti-inflammatory, desiccant, wound-healing, astringent, and antiseptic properties. This clinical study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of topical Marham-e-Dakhilyun ointment in women with cervical dysplasia (LSIL). The expected outcome is resolution of cytological changes seen in Pap smear and prevention of progression to cervical cancer.
