Patient's question:
I got married last year. Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried about it affecting my fertility, and I'm also extremely sensitive to cold and coldness. Can uterine polyps turn into cancer and be cured?Doctor's answer:
The possibility of uterine polyps becoming cancerous is relatively low. Treating polyps typically involves a minor surgery, which can usually be performed on an outpatient basis without the need for hospitalization. For small polyps, they can simply be clamped and removed using forceps. Afterwards, a slight control of medication is applied, or two pieces of gauze can be inserted at the cervix, which are removed after 24 hours. When polyps are larger, they are removed along with their stalks, and the base can be treated with cauterization and medication. There are many treatment methods for uterine polyps, but since patients' conditions vary, the chosen treatment method will differ accordingly. Therefore, patients need to undergo timely and thorough examination and diagnosis to receive targeted treatment.
