Patient's question:
My girlfriend has always had uterine polyps. Six months ago, due to the severity of the condition, she underwent surgery. However, in the past month, she has been experiencing some abdominal pain, irregular menstruation, and a constant feeling of fatigue. After a thorough examination, the doctor said that the uterine polyps have recurred, and she also has some anemia. How should recurrent uterine polyps with anemia be treated?Doctor's answer:
Your uterine polyps can be removed via hysteroscopy within 3 to 7 days after your next menstrual period ends. In most cases, uterine polyps do not respond well to medication. For anemia, you can go to the hematology department of the hospital for a follow-up examination to identify the cause of the anemia and then receive symptomatic treatment to replenish qi. The majority of cases are iron-deficiency anemia, which can be treated with iron supplements such as ferrous sulfate and folic acid tablets. Uterine polyps have little impact on anemia. In the future, it is essential to pay attention to personal hygiene to prevent the recurrence of gynecological infections.
