Patient's question:
Patient Age: Hello, I am 37 years old. I have been pregnant for 40 days. Today, I had an abortion under anesthesia. During the colposcopy, it was found that there were polyps, cysts, and erosion at the cervix. Today, I had an abortion, had an IUD inserted, and had the polyps and cysts removed. Hello, can these issues be addressed in two procedures? What should I pay attention to after the surgery and what kind of help do you need: During the abortion, an IUD was inserted and polyps and cysts were removed. Is this acceptable? Hello, what other tests should I undergo?Doctor's answer:
Hello, after an abortion and insertion of an IUD, it is not recommended to remove polyps and cysts at the same time. After all, removing polyps and cysts still creates wounds. After an abortion, the body is prone to bacterial colonization due to bleeding, which may lead to infection in the wounds of polyps and cysts. Therefore, it is generally not advisable to perform surgery to remove polyps and cysts after an abortion. However, if it has already been done, it is best to avoid sexual activity for one month and use appropriate medications to promote healing. After the next menstrual period, a follow-up examination should be conducted to check the healing of the scars.
