Patient's question:
The other day, I went for a gynecological examination. The doctor said I had cervical polyps, but I had never felt sick myself.Doctor's answer:
Endometrial polyps refer to the excessive growth of local endometrial glands, stroma, and accompanying blood vessels, which protrude into the uterine cavity. They are a common type of benign intracavitary lesion in gynecology. The formation of endometrial polyps may be related to inflammation, endocrine disorders, especially excessively high estrogen levels in the body. Women with infertility have a higher incidence of endometrial polyps, and pregnancy rates increase after polyp removal. Generally, sexual activity is not definitively related to uterine polyps.
