What is a uterine polyp?

Patient's question:

A few days ago, I had a follow-up ultrasound. The doctor said it might be a polyp, but wasn't sure. He suggested waiting until after my next menstrual period to check again. However, these past few days, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain and a feeling of heaviness. There are also blood streaks in my vaginal discharge. I don't know what's going on. How often should I get a gynecological examination?

Doctor's answer:

Analysis of the condition: Hello, according to your description, if it is an endometrial polyp, the advice is: it depends on the size and location. Generally, it is recommended to follow up after the menstrual period. This is because sometimes there may be physiological symptoms before the period, which disappear after the period. For such cases, treatment is not necessary. Hope this helps you.
