Patient's question:
I am 27 years old, female. My uterus has grown a polyp, which was recently discovered. It doesn't cause any symptoms. What should I do about uterine polyps?Doctor's answer:
The recurrence of cervical polyps is caused by factors such as childbirth, miscarriage, postpartum infection, surgical operations, or mechanical irritation like sexual trauma to the cervix, leading to the entry of pathogens and subsequent infection. Since the penis comes into direct contact with the cervix during sexual activity, poor attention to sexual hygiene can directly introduce bacteria into the vagina, infecting the cervix and causing cervical inflammation. Long-term inflammation can then lead to the formation of cervical polyps. If the polyps are small, you may consider purely medicinal treatment. If the nabothian cysts and polyps are larger, you should consider physical treatment methods, such as LEEP treatment. Patients should develop a regular lifestyle, adhere to treatment, maintain a light diet, and engage in aerobic exercise to boost their immunity and reduce the risk of illness.
