Patient's question:
After going to the hospital to remove the polyps, I had been putting it off because I didn't have any symptoms down there. It wasn't until February 2010 that I finally went to the hospital for a thorough examination and preparation for surgery. To my surprise, the doctor said it was a cervical canal fibroid. I'd like to ask if cervical polyps and cervical canal fibroids are the same thing?Doctor's answer:
Uterine fibroids are the most common benign tumors of the female reproductive system. The cause is unclear. Cervical fibroids, about 1%-2% of uterine fibroids grow in the cervix and are asymptomatic. For women with fibroids less than 3 months pregnant, check once every 3 months. No special treatment is needed. For patients with cervical polyps, daily treatment mainly focuses on symptomatic treatment. Patients can take some oral medications, supplemented with vitamins, and pay attention to diet, eating light, thin, and soft foods.
