Who does cervicitis affect?
People who have multiple partners or who engage in high-risk sexual behavior are at a higher risk for cervicitis. Those with a history of sexually transmitted diseases and infections (STDs and STIs), or who have partners with a history of STDs and STIs, are also more likely to contract cervicitis. But sexual practices aren’t the only cause of cervicitis. The condition can also be caused by irritation from douches, tampons or diaphragms.
