What are the symptoms of cervical polyps

Cervical cyst is a common gynecological disease and a clinical medical qualitative analysis of cervicitis. It is a disease in which inflammatory stimulation causes partial hyperplasia of the cervical mucosal tissue. Because the uterus itself has a tendency to reject the immune system, the hyperplastic mucosa gradually protrudes from the base end to the external os of the cervix, resulting in cystic changes. Therefore, it is also called cervical intrauterine polyp. Chinese medicine believes that the symptoms of cervical polyps are caused by the accumulation of cold and dampness, which damages the nutrients in the blood and damages the diversity and formation of the cytokines.

When a vaginal speculum is used to expose the cervix during a routine gynecological examination, the cysts heard vary in size and appearance. Cervical cysts can be divided into two types. The first type of cervical cysts have roots that are mostly adhered to the external os of the cervix or in the endocervical canal. They are generally small in size, with a diameter of less than 1 cm, occurring singly or in groups, bright red in color, soft in texture, easy to bleed, and with a long and thin pedicle.

The appearance is like a water droplet producing an oblate body. Another type of cervical cyst occurs inside the cervix and vagina. This type of cyst is superficial, protrudes toward the surface, has a wide base, is light red in color, and is tough in texture. Most uterine polyps are benign, but a few may become malignant, with a deterioration rate of 0.2 to 0.4%. If cervical cysts are removed, they will often relapse.

Relevant doctors introduced: Cervical cysts mostly occur in primiparas aged 40 to 60 years old; the cysts do not cause any discomfort to the patients for a short time. Most of the symptoms of cervical polyps are found during gynecological examinations due to other diseases. A very small number of patients with large cysts have symptoms of excessive leucorrhea, or a trace of blood in the secretions, or even a small amount of vaginal bleeding, that is, bloody leucorrhea or irregular bleeding, especially after sexual intercourse and when squatting and straining to defecate.
