How many years does it usually take for a uterine polyp to become cancerous?

Uterine polyps are rarely cancerous, and the time for cancer to occur varies from person to person, so it is recommended to analyze the specific problems and take active treatment. Uterine polyp is a common gynecological disease, broadly speaking, it refers to the swelling with slender tip attached to the uterine wall, including endometrial adenomyomatous polyp, endometrial polyp, malignant polyp and so on. Some patients may have no obvious clinical symptoms, but may also cause vaginal bleeding, uterine enlargement, increased menstruation, abnormal leukorrhea, infertility or miscarriage and other symptoms. Hysteroscopy allows direct observation of the uterine cavity, and biopsy or excision can be performed under direct vision. If patients undergo surgical treatment, they should pay attention to rest after the operation, eat a light diet and keep a happy mood.

It is recommended that checkups be performed every 3 months to facilitate early conception for those who plan to have a pregnancy.
