Patient's question:
I have a particularly itchy lower body, and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? What should I do if the uterine polyps turn cancerous?Doctor's answer:
Uterine polyps are the most common benign lesions of the uterus in women of reproductive age. Cervical polyps are composed of vascularized connective tissue stroma and are covered with columnar and squamous epithelium. The occurrence of cervical polyps is a result of long-term chronic inflammation. Cervical polyps are benign lesions of the cervix, but they can also undergo malignant transformation, usually <1%. The most common type of malignant transformation is squamous cell carcinoma, and adenocarcinoma may also occur. Once discovered, they must be removed as soon as possible.
