What kind of surgery is best for uterine polyps?

Patient's question:

A 49-year-old woman usually experiences physical discomfort, but she doesn't know what the cause is. She feels a constant sense of change. She asks: What kind of surgery is best for uterine polyps?

Doctor's answer:

Western medicine treats cervical polyps primarily through surgical removal. If accompanied by inflammation, infection must be controlled first. During bleeding, medication is applied as the primary treatment. After controlling the inflammation, surgery is performed. Although polyps rarely become cancerous, the canceration rate is still between 0.2% and 0.4%. For women under 45 years old, especially those experiencing cervical polyps during or around menopause, the polyps should be sent for pathological examination after surgical removal. If malignant changes are detected, early treatment measures should be adopted. Additionally, this condition is prone to recurrence, so follow-up examinations should be scheduled every three months after surgery.
