How to treat cervical polyp bleeding

Patient's question:

Cervical polyp bleeding has been going on for one and a half months now, and there is a small amount of black blood clots appearing again. When I went to the hospital, they just applied medication to solve it. But a couple of days later at home, it's still bleeding. I'm very worried if it will never heal properly! What should I do? What kind of medicine should I take?

Doctor's answer:

The treatment of cervical polyps is primarily surgical removal, but if accompanied by inflammation, infection control must be prioritized first; during bleeding, medication application is the primary approach, followed by surgery after inflammation is controlled. Although cervical polyps rarely undergo malignant transformation, the incidence rate is still between 0.2% and 0.4%. For patients under the age of 45, especially those around menopause, polyps should be sent for pathological examination after surgical removal. If malignant transformation is suspected, early treatment measures should be initiated.
For patients, if the condition of cervical polyps is severe, immediate symptomatic treatment and appropriate medication are necessary. Otherwise, it may lead to recurrence of cervical polyps. Additionally, patients should pay attention to their diet and psychological care. I hope the answers to these questions can help everyone. Thank you.
