Broad-based polyps, which are usually wider in the base of a woman’s polyp, are mostly benign, with a very small percentage of polyps being malignant. Whether it is a broad-based polyp in the vaginal wall, a cervical polyp, or an endometrial polyp, surgery is often considered to remove the polyp and send it to a pathologist to determine whether it is benign or malignant. Since the chance of polyps being malignant is low, small asymptomatic polyps can be followed up with observation if there is no obvious discomfort. If the polyp is large and has caused irregular vaginal bleeding or contact bleeding after intercourse, surgery is needed as soon as possible. Cervical polyps, for example, can be removed directly on an outpatient basis with surgical forceps, while endometrial polyps require hospitalization and removal under hysteroscopy.
