Patient's question:
I went for a gynecological examination today, and the doctor said I have polyps on my cervix. I don't really know what's going on, so I want to ask, what should I do if there are polyps during a gynecological examination?Doctor's answer:
Periodic gynecological examinations or detailed hysteroscopy may be performed, and cervical polyp resection can be conducted when necessary. Cervical polyps are a common gynecological condition, a type of cervicitis, so there is no need to worry too much—maintain a calm mood. These can be treated in the gynecology clinic. It is generally recommended to keep the external genitalia clean and dry, wear cotton underwear, frequently change sanitary pads during menstruation, and practice hygiene during sexual activity. Avoid spicy and irritating foods.
