Patient's question:
Recently discovered uterine polyps, how should they be treated? Is anesthesia required for removal? Additionally, how long must sexual activity be strictly prohibited? With this situation, I'm quite worried and want the condition to improve through treatment.Doctor's answer:
Uterine polyps are mostly related to long-term chronic inflammation stimulation, endocrine disorders, especially excessively high estrogen levels. The treatment of uterine polyps is primarily surgical, with polypectomy performed via hysteroscopy allowing clear visualization of the polyp stalk for removal at the root. Removing the basal layer can prevent its recurrence and further development.If surgical treatment is chosen, anesthesia must be administered. After uterine polyp surgery, it is important to maintain good hygiene. While ensuring personal cleanliness, attention should also be paid to hygiene during sexual activity to avoid infection and recurrence of the condition. Avoid consuming extremely cold, spicy, or pungent foods as much as possible. Wishing you a speedy recovery!
