Patient's question:
What should be paid attention to in daily life when having cervical polyps? What are the specific symptoms of cervical polyps? What will happen if cervical polyps are not treated?Doctor's answer:
Cervical polyps are a common condition, particularly prevalent in women aged 30-50. This disease is primarily caused by the long-term effects of chronic inflammation, which forces excessive fibrosis of the local mucosa in the cervical canal. Additionally, the uterus has a reverse reaction to expel foreign objects, causing the fibrotic mucosa to gradually develop from the base towards the weaker area of the cervix, forming polyps. Most polyps are benign, but they can sometimes be a small part of cervical cancer, so special attention must be paid. If left untreated, cervical polyps can gradually grow and block the cervix. If the polyp happens to block the cervix, it can cause cervical stenosis or cervical canal deformation, thereby obstructing the normal descent of sperm and leading to infertility.
