Patient's question:
Cervical polyps are not serious. Will this condition cause women to be unable to get pregnant?Doctor's answer:
Cervical polyps occurring at the cervix can gradually grow if left untreated, obstructing the cervix, leading to cervical stenosis or cervical canal deformation. This can make it difficult for some semen to enter the uterine cavity, resulting in reduced semen volume and significantly lowering the chances of female fertility. Cervical polyps are caused by the long-term invasion of chronic cervical inflammation and often produce a large amount of inflammatory secretions. These secretions, containing red and white blood cells and pathogenic bacteria associated with numerous cervical polyps, can disrupt the physiological environment of the vagina, reducing sperm vitality and shortening its survival time. Cervical polyps not only threaten female reproductive health but also endanger female life health. Although the likelihood of cervical polyps becoming malignant is relatively low, it is a reminder to women not to take them lightly. If cervical polyps are detected, timely treatment is essential.
