How to treat gynecological uterine polyps

There are four main types of harm that uterine polyps can cause to women: affecting sexual life, affecting pregnancy, causing other gynecological diseases, and posing a risk of pathological changes. In order to avoid the many effects of uterine polyps on women, female patients should seek timely treatment. How to treat uterine polyps?

At present, the main method of treating uterine polyps is surgical removal. However, the following matters need to be noted during treatment:

1. If there is secondary inflammation, the infection must be controlled first.

2. If there is bleeding, focus on promoting blood circulation.

3. Repeat surgical treatment after inflammation is controlled.

4. For women who suffer from uterine polyps before and after menopause, the polyps should be sent for pathological examination after surgical removal. If there are signs of deterioration, treatment measures should be taken as soon as possible.

5. Uterine polyps are very prone to recurrence, so regular follow-up visits are required after surgery, once every three months.

The harm of uterine polyps:

Harm 1: Affecting the couple’s life

If uterine polyps are not treated, they will gradually grow larger and block the cervix, causing bleeding during sexual intercourse or bloody leucorrhea.

Harm 2: Affecting pregnancy

If uterine polyps block the cervical opening, it will immediately cause cervical stenosis or cervical canal deformation, thereby hindering the normal flow of sperm and affecting pregnancy.

Harm three: causing other gynecological diseases

For patients who do not receive treatment for a long time, uterine polyps will also cause other gynecological diseases such as cervical erosion and cervical hypertrophy due to long-term inflammatory stimulation.

Injury 4: Risk of lesions

Although uterine polyps are rare, the incidence rate is between 0.2% and 0.4%. They usually occur in middle-aged women around 45 years old. Women with uterine polyps after menopause, in particular, should be more careful and not let the polyps develop into erosive levels.
