How long after endometrial polypectomy will menstruation return?

Patient's question:

A 31-year-old woman gradually started feeling uncomfortable in her body, but she didn't know what was wrong. It seemed like she lacked energy. She is asking: How long after the endometrial polyp surgery will her menstrual period return?

Doctor's answer:

Menstruation is regulated by the estrogen and progesterone secreted by the ovaries. Generally, endometrial polypectomy surgery will not affect menstruation, but it is also important to prevent the spread of infection. Rest in bed for two days, avoid heavy physical labor within two weeks, and strictly prohibit baths and sexual activity for one month. If menstruation does not arrive promptly, it is best to visit a hospital for a thorough examination to rule out other diseases. Additionally, patients should maintain a regular schedule, take precautions against colds, eat light, soft, and easily digestible foods, ensure good ventilation, and drink plenty of hot water to prevent the condition from recurring.
