Does uterine polyp surgery require general anesthesia?

For female patients with uterine polyps, generally speaking, their cysts are not large and few in number at the beginning of the disease. If they can receive surgical treatment at this stage, they will be cured quickly. However, some female patients with uterine polyps will ask, when they undergo surgical treatment, do they need to undergo general anesthesia?

For female patients with uterine polyps, if they choose surgical treatment, they basically do not need general anesthesia, only partial anesthesia is needed. This is because no matter which surgical method female patients with uterine polyps choose for treatment, it is basically performed on the female uterus, so there is no need for general anesthesia at all. In addition, female patients with uterine polyps should understand that anesthetics are harmful to the human body, so they should be used less and avoided as much as possible.

For female patients with uterine polyps, there is actually not only one surgical treatment method suitable for them. Generally, there are two more common types, namely minimally invasive surgery for uterine polyps and surgical removal of uterine polyps. Both surgical treatments can effectively remove the patient's cysts. However, compared with surgical removal of uterine polyps, minimally invasive surgery for uterine polyps causes less harm to the female patient's body, so the patient needs to spend less recovery time after surgery. However, the cost of minimally invasive surgery for uterine polyps is also slightly high.

For female patients with uterine polyps, no matter which surgical method they choose for treatment, they need to pay attention to postoperative medical care. The most important thing in postoperative medical care is environmental hygiene care. In this regard, female patients are generally required to wash their underwear and bed sheets frequently, and to disinfect and sterilize these items regularly.

To sum up, for female patients with uterine polyps, if they choose surgical treatment, partial anesthesia before the operation is sufficient and general anesthesia is not necessary. There are generally two ways to treat uterine polyps, namely minimally invasive surgery and surgical removal. As for which method the patient needs to choose for treatment, it depends on his or her own specific situation.
