Introduction

  • Are you troubled by irregular or unusually heavy menstrual bleeding?
  • Do you often feel bloated, fatigued, or experience unexpected spotting between periods?
  • Are you struggling with unexplained infertility or facing repeated pregnancy losses?
  • Do you feel anxious, frustrated, or simply not yourself because of these constant disruptions?
  • Do you get recurrent white discharge that’s quite irritating?
You may be dealing with uterine polyps—small, often silent growths that can cause big problems. While they may seem minor, uterine polyps can affect your menstrual health, fertility, and overall well-being. Many women live with these symptoms without even knowing the root cause. Dr. Dimple Doshi, expert gynecologist in Goregaon, offers advanced diagnosis and hysteroscopic treatment of uterine polyps with a focus on fertility, safety, and quick recovery.

What are Uterine Polyps?

Uterine polyps, also called endometrial polyps, are soft, non-cancerous overgrowths of the uterine lining causing bleeding or infertility.

Medical Synonyms

  • Endometrial Polyps
  • Uterine Mucosal Polyps
  • Polyps of the Endometrium
  • Benign Endometrial Growths

What Causes Uterine Polyps?

Uterine polyps develop due to various hormonal and metabolic factors, including:
  • Estrogen dominance or unopposed estrogen – overstimulates the endometrial lining
  • Irregular ovulation – commonly seen in conditions like PCOS
  • Tamoxifen therapy – a medication used for breast cancer may cause polyp growth
  • Obesity and insulin resistance – linked to hormonal imbalances and chronic inflammation
  • Chronic endometrial inflammation – can trigger abnormal tissue overgrowth
  • Hormonal fluctuations during perimenopause – increase susceptibility to polyps
These factors create an environment where the uterine lining grows excessively, forming benign polyps that may cause bleeding or infertility.

What Are the Symptoms of Uterine Polyps?

Uterine polyps often cause noticeable yet commonly overlooked symptoms, such as:
  • Heavy menstrual bleeding – prolonged or excessive flow
  • Spotting between periods – irregular bleeding outside of cycle
  • Postmenopausal bleeding – abnormal bleeding after menopause
  • Foul-smelling vaginal discharge – especially linked with uterine polyps
  • Infertility or implantation failure – due to disruption in the uterine lining
  • Bleeding after intercourse – a common red flag, especially with uterine polyps
Even small polyps can cause significant discomfort or fertility challenges—early evaluation is key.

Types of Uterine Polyps

There are several types of uterine polyps, each with unique characteristics that influence symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment planning.
  • Pedunculated Polyps – Attached by a stalk; may extend into the cervix or vagina.
  • Sessile Polyps – Broad-based and flat, attached directly to the endometrium.
  • Functional Polyps – Hormone-sensitive polyps that may vary with the menstrual cycle.
  • Hyperplastic Polyps – Gland-rich polyps, often linked to excess estrogen exposure.
  • Atrophic Polyps – Seen in postmenopausal women; arise from thinned endometrium.
  • Atypical Polyps – Show abnormal cells; may indicate precancerous changes.
Understanding the type helps doctors offer precise care, especially for women with bleeding or fertility issues.Understanding the type helps doctors offer precise care, especially for women with bleeding or fertility issues.

How Are Uterine Polyps Diagnosed?

Uterine polyps are diagnosed using imaging, direct visualization, and tissue analysis to confirm their presence and rule out serious conditions.
  • Transvaginal Sonography (TVS) – Detects endometrial thickening and irregularities.
  • Saline Infusion Sonography (SIS) – Uses saline to better outline intrauterine polyps.
  • Hysteroscopy – Offers direct visualization and allows for polyp removal in the same procedure.
  • Speculum Examination – Helps identify visible cervical polyps near the cervix opening.
  • Histopathology (Biopsy) – Confirms polyp type and checks for atypical or malignant cells.
Accurate diagnosis ensures timely treatment and minimizes the risk of complications.

Treatment Options for Uterine Polyps

Treatment depends on symptoms, size, and type of polyp. Minimally invasive options help preserve fertility and ensure accurate diagnosis.
  • Medical Therapy – Hormonal medications offer temporary relief but don’t remove polyps.
  • Hysteroscopic Polypectomy – Gold standard; removes uterine polyps under direct vision.
  • Tissue Analysis (Histopathology) – Essential for all removed polyps to rule out cancer or atypia.
Early removal and analysis help avoid complications like persistent bleeding or missed malignancy.

Who Is at Risk of Developing Polyps?

Uterine polyps are more likely to occur in women with hormonal imbalances, certain medications, or chronic uterine inflammation.
  • Women aged 40–60 – Perimenopausal hormonal shifts increase risk.
  • Obesity or Insulin Resistance – Can cause estrogen dominance.
  • PCOS or Chronic Anovulation – Leads to unopposed estrogen stimulation.
  • Tamoxifen Use – Breast cancer medication linked to polyp formation.
  • History of Chronic Endometritis – Long-term inflammation of the uterine lining. 
Recognizing these risk factors allows for early screening and preventive care.

Why Should You Get Checked for Polyps?

Timely diagnosis of uterine polyps helps prevent complications, ease emotional stress, and restore reproductive and menstrual health.
  • Prevent Infertility & Miscarriage – Polyps can block implantation or disrupt pregnancy.
  • Rule Out Cancer Risk – Especially important in postmenopausal women with bleeding.
  • Relieve Emotional Distress – Persistent bleeding, pain, and uncertainty can affect mental well-being.
  • Get a Quick, Safe Solution – Hysteroscopy offers accurate diagnosis and immediate treatment.
Early intervention leads to peace of mind, improved fertility, and better quality of life.
