How are uterine polyps and polypoid hyperplasia treated?

Patient's question:

Main symptoms: Extended menstrual period Onset time: April 2009 Laboratory test results: Uterine polyps and polypoid hyperplasia

Doctor's answer:

The formation of polyps may be related to inflammation, endocrine disorders, especially excessively high estrogen levels. Most scholars believe that polyps originate from immature endometrium, particularly the basal endometrium. Cervical polypectomy followed by scraping the entire uterine cavity can remove diffuse small polyps and send them for pathological examination. Postoperatively, regular follow-up is recommended to monitor for recurrence and malignant transformation, with timely management. In recent years, hysteroscopic surgery or laser treatment has been used to remove small polyps. There are no effective preventive measures. The main preventive and therapeutic measures are regular gynecological examinations to detect lesions early.
