Patient's question:
Vaginal itching, purulent leukorrhea, lower abdominal pain - what should I do?Doctor's answer:
Harm to the human body;1. Cervical polyps can become cancerous, although the canceration rate is only 0.2%-0.4%. For women over 45, especially those with cervical polyps around menopause, surgical removal of the polyps should be followed by pathological examination. If malignant signs are detected, early treatment measures should be taken.
3. Cervical polyps can also cause bleeding during intercourse, affecting sexual activity. Treatment methods vary depending on the size, location, shape of the polyps, and the patient's age.
1. For larger, pedunculated polyps that can be seen or felt in the lower uterus, they can be removed through cervical dilation, followed by cervical and uterine scraping to remove remaining polyps and send them for pathological examination.
2. For small, focal, or diffuse polyps, a D&C (dilation and curettage) procedure should be performed, with special attention to thorough scraping, especially at the fundus and cornual areas of the uterus.
3. After uterine surgery, anti-infection treatment should be administered. Clinically, oral antibiotics or intravenous antibiotics can be given.
4. For patients with significant bleeding symptoms that persist or recur frequently despite treatment, hysterectomy should be considered.
