Do uterine polyps require hospitalization?
Women with endometrial polyps sometimes require hospital treatment, especially in certain cases. For instance, women with smaller and fewer polyps, limited by economic conditions, can undergo diagnostic curettage in outpatient settings. This is followed by a pathological histological examination to rule out the possibility of malignancy. However, this method carries a risk of missed diagnosis. If the women's endometrial polyps are larger and more numerous, or if economic conditions allow, they can be hospitalized for hysteroscopic polypectomy under anesthesia. This procedure offers accurate localization and minimal damage to surrounding tissues. Post surgery, a pathological histological examination can also be performed to determine the type of lesion.
