What are the precautions after uterine polyp surgery

Patient's question:

What problems should be paid attention to after uterine polypectomy? Is there anything to avoid?

Doctor's answer:

Postoperative nutritional support is necessary. Avoid heavy physical labor and strenuous activities within two weeks, and avoid contact with cold water. Consume more protein-rich foods such as fish, meat, eggs, and soy products, as well as fresh vegetables rich in vitamins. Do not overexert yourself, and avoid sexual intercourse to prevent infection.
Since everyone's condition is different, the appropriate treatment methods also vary. Therefore, patients must identify the specific cause and receive targeted treatment to achieve the desired therapeutic effect. Under the guidance of a doctor, undergo a targeted examination based on your individual circumstances and receive symptomatic treatment.
Sexual activity is prohibited for one month after treatment. After the procedure, the cervix has a healing period. If proper care is not taken during this time, bacterial infection is highly likely, which may lead to recurrence, and sexual activity will undoubtedly exacerbate the situation.
In addition to the three postoperative precautions for cervical polyp removal mentioned above, it is also advisable to avoid cold, spicy, and pungent foods in daily life. Such foods can promote inflammation and hinder recovery.
