How to treat a cervical polyp

Patient's question:

Today I went for a thorough check-up for prenatal and postnatal health. When taking cervical mucus, the doctor said it was the size of a peanut. The doctor said I have cervical polyps, but I haven't felt sick at all. What are the symptoms of cervical polyps? What kind of assistance is needed: How to treat a cervical polyp?

Doctor's answer:

Cervical polyps are generally caused by abnormal fibrosis due to chronic inflammation. Surgical treatment is recommended, and patients should go to a formal hospital for removal using a loop electrosurgical excision procedure (LEEP). The polyps should be sent for pathological examination to rule out malignancy, and postoperative anti-inflammatory treatment should be administered.
If they are small, they may not cause symptoms. If they are larger, they may cause discomfort such as contact bleeding. For small polyps, close monitoring is recommended, and removal can be considered if they enlarge.
