Cervical polyps the size of a soybean are recommended to be removed surgically.
Cervical polyps are a common disease caused by chronic cervicitis. Under the long-term stimulation of chronic cervical inflammation, some tissues of the cervical canal have mucous membrane hyperplasia, and because the uterus carries its own exclusion function, the hyperplasia of the mucous membrane gradually protrudes from the bottom to the external cervical opening, which results in the formation of cervical polyps.
Surgical removal is recommended 3 to 7 days after menstrual cleansing, and it is recommended that the removed polyps be sent for pathologic examination. Although the vast majority of cervical polyps are clinically benign, some may be malignant. Therefore, clinically, the size of the polyp does not determine the need for surgery, and it should be surgically removed as soon as it is detected.
Cervical polyps are recurrent, and postoperative patients should undergo regular review. It is recommended that appropriate gynecological examinations be done within six months or a year to find out whether they have recurred.
