Patient's question:
Recently, there has been yellow leukorrhea, most of which has an odor, or leukorrhea mixed with blood streaks. Occasionally, there is slight bleeding after sexual activity. After examination, it was found to be a cervical polyp. Can cervical polyps be left untreated? Where should I go to the hospital for a cervical polyp? Can cervical polyps be left untreated?Doctor's answer:
Hello, the recurrence of cervical polyps is caused by factors such as childbirth, miscarriage, postpartum infection, surgical operations, or mechanical injuries to the cervix, such as sexual trauma, leading to the entry of pathogens and resulting in infection. Since the penis comes into direct contact with the cervix during sexual activity, if sexual hygiene is not maintained, bacteria can be directly introduced into the vagina, infecting the cervix and causing cervical inflammation. Long-term inflammation can lead to the formation of cervical polyps. If the polyps are small, you may consider simple medication treatment. If the nabothian cysts and polyps are larger, you should consider physical treatment methods, such as LEEP treatment. During the treatment of cervical polyps, in addition to immediate treatment, the patient's dietary condition and psychological state are also particularly important.
