How long after surgery for multiple endometrial polyps can I get pregnant?

Patient's question:

At 28, a woman who has been unable to conceive for a year and a half underwent a hysteroscopy last week to check the patency of her fallopian tubes, which revealed multiple endometrial polyps. They have been removed. How long should she wait before trying to conceive again? Do endometrial polyps require dedicated treatment? How do they interfere with conception? The doctor here recommended taking birth control pills for three months before trying to conceive again. Is this necessary?

Doctor's answer:

After the removal of endometrial polyps, pregnancy can be achieved within 3 months. After the removal of endometrial polyps, due to the repair of the endometrium, scarring will occur quickly. The cyclical shedding of the endometrium leads to menstruation.
2. The surgery for endometrial polyps may carry risks such as uterine adhesion or complications. Therefore, it is recommended to use birth control pills for three months post-surgery to prevent complications and avoid uterine adhesion.
