What are the symptoms of cervical polyps?

Patient's question:

Symptoms also include: abdominal pain, a long history of chronic inflammation, and when touching the cervix with a finger, it feels like a small finger-sized nodule, grape-like growths on the cervix, which the doctor said are cervical polyps. What are the manifestations of cervical polyps?

Doctor's answer:

Very small cervical polyps often cause no symptoms and are usually discovered during a gynecological examination. In severe cases, they may lead to excessive menstrual bleeding or irregular uterine bleeding. If a polyp is visible or palpable at the cervix, the uterus may appear slightly smaller. Performing a hysteroscopy or fractional curettage, and sending the removed polyp for pathological examination, can confirm the diagnosis and help differentiate it from conditions such as dysfunctional endocrine uterine bleeding, submucosal uterine fibroids, and endometrial cancer.
