Will endometrial polyps, such diseases, turn into cancer?

Patient's question:

About half a year ago, I started feeling a bloated pain in my lower abdomen. At that time, I didn't go to the hospital, but later the pain worsened, even causing sharp pain when using the restroom. Sometimes, I also experienced abnormal vaginal discharge. After undergoing a detailed examination at the hospital, the doctor said that there were polyps growing on the endometrium.

Doctor's answer:

The treatment for uterine polyps is surgery. If you have already given birth, a total hysterectomy is recommended. The risk of uterine polyps becoming malignant is very low, and almost 80% of women have polyps of varying sizes. Hospitals generally recommend removing them and then having an ultrasound check-up every six months or a year to monitor the development. If there is canceration, a combination of traditional Chinese and Western medicine treatments can be adopted.
