What are the effects of endometrial polyps less than 1 cm?

Patient's question:

What are the effects of endometrial polyps less than 1 cm? Will they have a significant impact on getting pregnant?

Doctor's answer:

If there are small endometrial polyps, it is possible to temporarily avoid surgery and wait for a period of careful observation. Endometrial polyps may cause heavy menstrual bleeding or prolonged periods, and they can also affect fertility. If the polyps are less than one centimeter, you can take progesterone medication to promote the shedding of the endometrium. If they are larger than one centimeter, surgery will be necessary. In terms of diet, it is important to maintain a light and healthy diet and take care of your overall health.
