Patient's question:
Last year, I had an issue, and after checking at the hospital, I was prescribed medication. Both the topical and oral treatments quickly controlled it. However, recently, my private area has started to feel uncomfortable again. My discharge is also abnormal, and it has a very strong odor. Please ask: How is it best to treat uterine polyps?Doctor's answer:
Hello, cervical polyps are caused by inflammation stimulation and are generally benign. They should undergo polypectomy (a very minor surgery). Cervical polypectomy is relatively simple, quick, and painless. Polyps removed, regardless of size, must undergo pathological examination because cervical polyps have a 0.2% to 0.4% risk of malignant transformation. Although it is low, it should not be overlooked due to negligence. Additionally, even after the polyp is removed, the inflammation in the cervix is not completely eliminated. Therefore, patients need regular follow-up examinations in case of recurrence. In addition to treating gynecological and obstetric conditions, it is recommended that patients pay attention to their diet in daily life and maintain a cheerful mood to enhance their physical fitness and accelerate recovery.
