Polyps growing inside the uterine cavity are a pathological proliferative tissue caused by excessive growth in certain areas of the endometrium due to inflammation. For patients with larger uterine polyps, timely surgery is necessary for removal. Does a uterine polyp of 0.8 require surgery?
Patients with uterine polyps measuring 0.8 centimeters do not require surgical treatment, as polyps smaller than one centimeter will gradually disappear on their own in most cases. In cases of smaller polyps, the speed of disappearance is also very fast. As long as some medication is taken for treatment and daily maintenance is done, endometrial polyps will gradually shrink.
For patients with uterine polyps, if the polyp is larger than one centimeter and there are some obvious abnormal symptoms in the body, surgery should be considered for treatment. The surgical treatment effect is very significant, and the risk is also very small. The surgical cost is not high, and it can be performed through hysteroscopic polypectomy, which is a minimally invasive surgery.
For patients with uterine polyps, it is important to take medication according to the course of treatment. Do not stop taking medication casually, as endometrial polyps may recur and enlarge after discontinuation. Therefore, it is necessary to strictly follow medical advice and undergo regular check ups.
