Cervical polyp removal

Every woman should be aware of the serious impact of cervical polyps on the uterus. Although cervical polyps are a relatively common gynecological disease, if cervical polyps are not treated in time, they will grow larger and larger, thus endangering a woman's ability to become pregnant. Generally speaking, if you want to fundamentally treat cervical polyps, you need to undergo cervical polyp removal surgery. At this time, female patients will also be more worried about whether the removal of cervical polyps will cause other sequelae to the body.

How to treat cervical polyps?

According to experts, cervical polyps are one of the common gynecological diseases in outpatient clinics, and are more common in married women or multiparous women aged 30-50. However, because extremely small cervical polyps often have no conscious symptoms, more than 1/3 of patients with cervical polyps have no obvious symptoms and are only discovered during examinations; while larger polyps are prone to symptoms of bloody leucorrhea or contact bleeding, especially after sexual intercourse or straining during bowel movements, or a small amount of bleeding may occur. These symptoms are very similar to those of early cervical cancer. Therefore, experts remind female netizens that they should get checked and treated in a timely manner.

Cervical polyps are harmful and should be treated early

Since patients with very small polyps have no obvious symptoms, what harm will there be if cervical polyps are not treated? According to experts, although very small cervical polyps have no obvious symptoms, if they are not treated, they will block the cervical opening and even cause infertility. There is also the possibility of causing cancer. Specifically, cervical polyps will bring the following 4 hazards:

1. If cervical polyps are not treated, they will gradually grow larger and block the cervical opening. Or if the polyp happens to block the cervical opening, it can cause the cervical opening to narrow or the cervical canal to deform, thereby hindering the normal upward movement of sperm and causing infertility.

2. It will cause bleeding during sexual intercourse or bloody leucorrhea, affecting sexual life.

3. Cervical polyps are often related to chronic cervical inflammation. If only the polyps are removed, the chronic inflammation of the cervix is ​​not eliminated, and the pathogens are still lurking in the cervical tissue, so recurrence is still possible. Therefore, after treating cervical polyps, chronic cervical inflammation should also be treated to prevent recurrence of polyps.

4. Although polyps rarely become cancerous, the cancer rate is also 0.2%-0.4%. For those who are over 45 years old, especially those who suffer from cervical polyps before and after menopause, the polyps should be sent for pathological examination after surgical removal. If there are signs of malignancy, treatment measures should be taken as soon as possible. Even if the polyps are removed, they will still recur as long as the inflammation exists.
