Patient's question:
Doctor, my wife has been carefully examined and found to have uterine polyps. However, she suddenly got pregnant at this very moment. I am very worried that this might affect the growth and development of the fetus. Will uterine polyps affect pregnancy?Doctor's answer:
Uterine polyps need to be examined for their number and size. If there are only a few polyps, just one or two, and they are relatively small, they generally do not affect the fetus's growth and development. If there are many polyps, and they are relatively large, they can easily lead to placenta implantation or placental abruption. This usually does not affect the fetus's growth and development. However, if there is any vaginal bleeding or abdominal pain at any time during pregnancy, it is essential to seek medical attention as soon as possible.
