How are uterine polyps formed

Patient's question:

Health consultation description: Previously, I had some abdominal pain. Yesterday, I went to the hospital for a thorough examination and had an X-ray taken. The doctor said there are polyps in my uterus and that surgery is necessary to relieve the condition. Currently, the doctor has prescribed some topical medication for me because there is some broken skin.

Doctor's answer:

For endometrial polyps, this is caused by inflammatory attacks. You can start with intravenous fluids to reduce inflammation and see if it can improve. If it improves, surgery can be avoided. Even if surgery is performed, if the inflammation is not thoroughly resolved, it is very easy to cause recurrence. Endometrial polyps are formed by the union of the endometrium and vary in size. They often cause irregular vaginal bleeding and have a low probability of developing into cancer. However, the most ideal treatment is to perform polypectomy under hysteroscopy. Postoperative recurrence is common, so it is important to maintain good hygiene during daily life and during menstruation to prevent infection. Pay close attention and monitor to prevent malignant transformation.
