Polypectomy
Safe Removal of Uterine Polyps for Better Reproductive Health
Overview:
A polypectomy is a medical procedure to remove polyps—small, abnormal growths of tissue—found in the uterus or cervix. These polyps are usually noncancerous (benign) but can cause symptoms like heavy bleeding or fertility issues. Polypectomy is often performed using hysteroscopy, a minimally invasive technique that allows direct visualization of the uterus.
Why is Polypectomy Done?
Polypectomy is recommended when polyps cause:
- Abnormal or heavy menstrual bleeding
- Bleeding between periods or after menopause
- Difficulty conceiving or repeated miscarriages
- Suspicion of pre-cancerous changes in the uterine lining
- Cervical polyps detected during routine examination
Procedure:
- Usually done as a day-care procedure
- A hysteroscope (thin camera tube) is inserted through the vagina to locate the polyp
- Specialized instruments are used to remove the polyp
- No external incisions or stitches required
- The removed polyp may be sent for biopsy to rule out malignancy
Benefits of Polypectomy:
- Quick and safe procedure
- No cuts or scars
- Minimal pain and downtime
- Improves menstrual regularity
- Enhances fertility in some cases
Recovery:
- Light bleeding or spotting for a few days is normal
- Mild cramping may occur
- Avoid intercourse and use of tampons for about a week or as advised
- Return to normal activities within 1–2 days
- Follow-up with your doctor for biopsy results (if applicable)
