Patient's question:
Female, 32 years old, detected a uterine polyp during the unit health check in December. For the past two months, her menstruation has been delayed by about 11 days, with a small amount of flow. This month's menstruation in February was even 10 days early. She wants to ask the doctor if her uterine polyp needs to be removed through surgery at the hospital. How many days of rest are generally required after a uterine polyp surgery?Doctor's answer:
Endometrial polyps are recommended for hysteroscopic examination and removal. Endometrial polyps often cause changes in menstruation, such as excessive menstrual flow and prolonged menstrual periods, and can also lead to uterine cavity infection and polyp inflammation. Therefore, when endometrial polyps are detected, it is generally advised to undergo surgery as soon as possible. After the surgery, rest for two or three days is usually sufficient. Maintain a good routine and increase physical exercise during daily life to enhance the body's resistance and immunity.
