Patient's question:
How long after a D&C procedure for uterine polyps can one resume sexual activity?Doctor's answer:
Guidance: Treatment Plan: Different treatment methods should be adopted based on the size, location, morphology of the polyps, and the patient's age.1. For larger pedunculated polyps that can be seen or felt in the lower uterine segment, the polyps can be removed by dilating the cervix, 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) should be performed, with 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 or intravenous antibiotics can be given.
4. For patients with significant bleeding symptoms that cannot be completely eradicated or frequently recur with the above treatments, hysterectomy should be considered.
