the chances of cervical polyps becoming cancerous
Cervical polyps rarely become malignant; they are a form of chronic cervicitis. Cervical polyps originate from the glandular bodies and stroma of the cervical canal, appearing as localized hyperplasia that protrudes outwards from the cervical os, typically either singly or in multiple occurrences. Some individuals may experience bleeding after sexual intercourse and discover cervical polyps upon timely medical examination. Once cervical polyps are detected, preoperative cancer screening of the cervix is necessary, including testing for human papillomavirus infections and liquid-based cytology of the cervix. If there are no pathological changes, it is appropriate to promptly perform electrosurgical removal of the cervical polyp, followed by further pathological examinations post-surgery. Generally, it is advised to avoid getting cold and to maintain cleanliness of the external genitalia.
