Patient's question:
These days, when washing the private area, there's a sensation of a lump of flesh bulging upon contact. When pushed, there's sometimes pus discharge. What are the symptoms of malignant transformation of endometrial polyps?Doctor's answer:
Endometrial polyps can become malignant, leading to bloody or odorous discharge. If the polyps recur and become malignant, a diagnostic D&C (dilation and curettage) examination is necessary to confirm the diagnosis. Malignant endometrial polyps should not be touched, and it is essential to visit a hospital for a thorough examination to determine the specific location of the purulent discharge, as it may be caused by purulent infection or other issues. Currently, at your age, the likelihood of endometrial malignancy is relatively low.
