Patient's question:
I am 24 years old, female. Recently, my menstrual flow has been heavy, and I have also experienced abdominal pain again. The doctor diagnosed it as endometrial polyps. What should I do about endometrial polyps?Doctor's answer:
The causes of endometrial polyps may be related to inflammation, endocrine disorders, especially excessively high estrogen levels. This condition can recur at any age after puberty. Small polyps generally show no obvious clinical symptoms, while larger polyps typically manifest as increased menstrual bleeding, prolonged menstrual periods, and post-coital discharge. Drug treatment is ineffective; medications will not shrink or eliminate the formed polyps. The best treatment is to undergo laser surgery under hysteroscopy. Patients should develop a regular lifestyle, adhere to treatment, and maintain a light diet with aerobic exercise to boost their immunity and reduce the risk of illness.
