Patient's question:
A year ago, a gynecological examination revealed a small polyp. Now it is said to be growing relatively quickly, and surgery is recommended to remove the polyp. Does this condition require general anesthesia?Doctor's answer:
Hello, vaginal polyps are relatively rare and are generally caused by chronic inflammation. However, it is necessary to rule out other lesions such as genital warts, as well as polyps from the cervix or uterine cavity that have prolapsed into the vagina. It is recommended to undergo further examination. For simple vaginal polyps, laser treatment can be used, which is safe, painless, minimally invasive, quick, and has a fast recovery. Usually, a vaginal examination requires the use of a colposcope, so we apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.
