Patient's question:
I went for a gynecological examination because of severe inflammation recently and excessive white discharge. The detailed examination results indicated endometrial polyp-like changes. What does this mean? Are polyp-like changes the same as a tumor? How should endometrial polyp-like changes be treated?Doctor's answer:
Hello. Considering your excessive endometrial fibrosis, it is recommended to undergo diagnostic dilation and curettage or hysteroscopic curettage. Treatment should be implemented based on the pathological results obtained after the procedure. If non-atypical fibrosis is not present, a Mirena IUD can be used. If non-atypical fibrosis is present, high-efficiency progesterone treatment should be administered for three months, followed by a repeat curettage. Alternatively, surgical removal of the uterus can be considered. If successful conception is achieved, to prevent the transformation of endometrial cancer.
