Patient's question:
My partner has endometrial polyps. This condition was carefully diagnosed about two years ago. During this period, we have tried quite a bit of traditional Chinese medicine, but it hasn't been effective. I would like to ask how endometrial polyps are treated?Doctor's answer:
Endometrial polyps are caused by excessive proliferation of the endometrium, leading to fibrotic-like changes in the uterine cavity, and they carry the potential for development. They can also interfere with menstruation, causing spotting vaginal bleeding or prolonged menstrual periods. Therefore, it is important to seek timely treatment if endometrial polyps are detected.Medical advice: For smaller, solitary endometrial polyps that do not exhibit significant symptoms, it is recommended to undergo periodic follow-up examinations. However, for larger endometrial polyps or multiple polyps, medication treatment is ineffective, and surgical intervention is advised. Removal can be performed under hysteroscopy.
