Patient's question:
Recently, there has been yellowish leukorrhea, most of which has an odor, or leukorrhea mixed with blood streaks. Occasionally, there is a small amount of bleeding after sexual activity. After examination, it was found to be cervical polyps. What are the symptoms of cervical polyps?Doctor's answer:
Cervical polyps are one manifestation of chronic cervical inflammation. There is a polyp whose root is attached to the cervix or within the cervical canal. It is formed by local fibrosis of the cervical mucosa under the influence of inflammation, which then protrudes outwards from the cervix. Cervical polyps usually do not cause any discomfort, but sometimes they may lead to increased vaginal discharge, streaks of blood in the discharge, or post-coital bleeding. If any of these symptoms occur, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. Cervical polyps are generally treatable through surgery. During the treatment of cervical polyps, in addition to immediate medical intervention, the patient's dietary condition and psychological state are also particularly important. Patients must maintain a positive mood and eat a balanced diet to avoid unnecessary impacts on the complete recovery of cervical polyps.
