Patient's question:
Is there a high possibility of cervical polyps becoming cancerous? How likely is it for women to develop cancer after suffering from cervical polyps?Doctor's answer:
While the malignancy rate of polyps is generally not high under normal circumstances, it is approximately 0.2% to 0.4%. Surgical removal is a simple and effective method. However, it should be noted that polyps are also prone to recurrence. It is recommended that women with sexual experience avoid unhygienic sexual practices and minimize induced abortions to reduce cervical damage caused by gynecological surgeries. This can significantly reduce the likelihood of polyp recurrence and thereby lower the risk of cancer transformation.
