I believe that patients with uterine polyps have the same question: are uterine polyps serious? In fact, the severity of the disease is mainly determined by the extent of the symptoms. There is no special saying that a disease that seems to be easily cured is not serious. Let's take a look at whether uterine polyps are serious.

The severity of uterine polyps mainly depends on the size, location, and frequency of occurrence of the cyst. If the cyst is relatively large, conservative treatment cannot be used simply. If the location of the cyst blocks sperm from entering the uterine cavity or causes menstrual discharge, affects sperm embryo implantation or menstrual disorders, all of which may cause miscarriage or infertility.

If uterine intrauterine polyps recur frequently and conservative treatment and hysteroscopic electrosurgical resection are ineffective, the only option left is hysterectomy. As for the above three conditions, uterine intrauterine polyps are a very serious gynecological disease. However, some uterine polyps have no obvious symptoms, and sometimes they are discharged with menstruation, or they can be cured with simple conservative treatment, so this situation is not serious.

Therefore, the severity of uterine polyps depends mainly on the extent of the symptoms.

What are the obvious symptoms of uterine polyps?

1. The common symptoms of patients with uterine intrauterine polyps are non-menstrual bleeding in the uterus, excessive menstruation during the menstrual period, prolonged menstruation, or abnormal menstruation and menstrual period time before menopause. These are all symptoms of uterine wall polyps. However, there is no direct relationship between the size and location of the cyst and the severity of the symptoms.

2. Uterine polyps may also cause abdominal pain, which often manifests itself during the menstrual period. This is mainly due to the obstruction of the cysts that causes menstrual discharge to be unsmooth, but this type of symptom will disappear after the menstrual period.

3. The adnexitis caused by uterine polyps will affect the growth and perfection of eggs, and uterine polyps will block male sperm from entering the uterine cavity, affecting the implantation of the embryo combined with sperm and egg. Therefore, infertility may be a symptom of uterine polyps.

4. Uterine polyps may also cause abnormal leucorrhea or even bleeding, irregular bleeding caused by intercourse or excessive straining during bowel movements.
