Patient's question:
Because previously there was white discharge with a curd-like texture, and the vulva was very itchy, without realizing the severity of the situation, it was continuously delayed. Later, during sexual activity, there was bleeding, and then the severity of the condition was understood. Upon further examination, cervical polyps were found, and they were surgically removed under colposcopy. Pathological examination confirmed cervical polyps, and the white discharge test was normal. However, seven months later, abnormal white discharge and some lower back pain reappeared, and another polyp was found during examination and surgically removed. But after removal, the white discharge remained abnormal. Last week, a colposcopy examination showed a smooth cervix, and the white discharge cleanliness was rated as III. Always feeling that the abnormal white discharge indicated a problem, a second examination of the cervix revealed another polyp. The doctor said it should be removed three days after the menstrual period is clean, butDoctor's answer:
Cervical polyps are attached to the cervix or within the cervical canal. Another type of cervical polyp occurs in the vaginal part of the cervix. Cervical polyps are also formed due to the stimulation of chronic inflammation, local hyperplasia of the cervical canal mucosa, and gradually protruding outward. If cervical polyps are not treated, they can gradually grow, block the cervix, and cause infertility. They can also lead to bleeding during intercourse or bloody discharge. Therefore, if cervical polyps are detected, it is best to have them removed immediately. Additionally, the symptoms you described, such as "cheesy discharge and itchy external genitalia," are indicative of candidal vaginitis. It is recommended that you actively cooperate with your doctor for treatment to eliminate the inflammation.
