Cervical polyps are the size of peanuts

There are many causes of cervical polyps, inflammatory factors, endocrine disorders, and pathogen infection are the three most common types. After suffering from cervical polyps, there will be bleeding and abnormal leucorrhea. There are many treatments for cervical polyps. Cervical polyps the size of peanuts require surgical treatment. The effect of drug treatment is not very good, so timely treatment is important.

Cervical polyps are mainly treated with surgical removal to prevent recurrence due to incomplete treatment. Medication is only an auxiliary treatment.

1. Surgical Method

Polypectomy or transurethral resection may be performed. Clamp the polyp pedicle with a vascular clamp, rotate it in one direction, and twist it out. Small polyps can be removed with a vascular clamp and slight pressure can be applied to stop the bleeding, or a piece of gauze can be stuffed at the neck and removed after 24 hours. If the polyp is large and has a thick pedicle, the base end can be cauterized to stop bleeding after removal. If there are multiple lesions, the cervical canal can be slightly dilated and then scraped thoroughly, and a diagnostic curettage can be performed at the same time.

2. Postoperative precautions

Since polyps are prone to recurrence and may grow again after removal, they should be checked regularly and vaginitis should be actively treated. What should not be overlooked is that cervical smear examinations should be performed regularly to rule out malignant changes.

prevention

Cervical polyps can block the cervical opening and cause infertility; cause bleeding during sexual intercourse and affect sexual life; and are prone to recurrence after treatment. A small number of cervical polyps can become malignant and can easily be confused with some cervical cancers. Therefore, cervical polyps should be taken seriously and preventive measures should be taken.

1. Take good care of your health during menstruation, after childbirth or after miscarriage; pay attention to the cleanliness of the vulva, but do not use irritating detergents when cleaning the vulva.

2. Pay attention to sexual hygiene. Before sexual intercourse, both men and women should clean the vulva. Men with long foreskin should clean their penis thoroughly to prevent bacteria, mycoplasma, chlamydia, etc. from "quietly" invading.

3. Actively treat gynecological inflammations such as cervicitis and vaginitis. Regular gynecological examinations are also very important.
