Ms. Li was troubled by endometrial polyps . Her situation has to start four years ago. Three years ago, Ms. Li came to our hospital for treatment because she was not pregnant for one year after marriage. The ultrasound examination showed that she had endometrial polyps. At that time, he had a hysteroscopy + endometrial polypsectomy . Under the hysteroscopy, Ms. Li was also found to have a single-horned uterus with a lack of left uterine horn. Fortunately, she became pregnant in the fourth month after the operation. Ms. Li’s postpartum menstrual cycle and menstrual volume are normal, and there is no abnormal uterine bleeding. Due to the relaxation of the national third-child policy, the couple gradually put the second child on the agenda. As a result, the two of them worked hard for more than half a year and their stomachs were not moving. As a result, after examination, they found an endometrial polyp. So he had a hysteroscopy and endometrial polypsectomy.
1. Why does the endometrial polyps recur so quickly?
endometrial polyps are a benign disease of endometrial glands abnormal hyperplasia with interstitial changes. The incidence rate in women of childbearing age and women after menopause is 7.8%-34.9%. As we age, the malignant variability rate of endometrial polyps also appears to be on the rise. In addition, endometrial polyps also have another characteristic, with a high recurrence rate. According to statistics, the recurrence rate after resection is 6.2%-29%, and the recurrence time is as long as a few years, and the shortest is as short as a few days! The recurrence rate of endometrial polyps is relatively high, which mainly depends on the choice of surgical methods. The traditional curettage or polyps forceps can be removed, and the recurrence rate can reach 50%. In addition, the electroresection under the endometrial polyp hysteroscopy also has a certain recurrence rate after the operation. This is mainly because endometrial polyp surgery is used to treat the surface polyps and cannot deeply eliminate the lesions that cause the polyps, so the polyps will recur soon!
2. How to eliminate polyps and avoid recurrence?
Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the pathogenesis of uterine polyps has internal and external causes. Because women have lost qi and blood and are not regulated by Chong and Ren, the uterus will be lost and are prone to invasion of external evil viruses, resulting in poor circulation of qi and blood, stagnation and knotting, and abnormal menstruation; external causes are caused by careless care of daily life, or unclean sexual intercourse, causing pathogenic bacteria to enter the uterus and cause inflammation and infection, so internal and external forces, causing polyps to endogenerate. After the patient is diagnosed with uterine polyps, he can use Chinese medicine or Chinese patent medicine (Xifuxin) to control the development of the polyps, and then penetrate, accumulate, inhibit, gradually atrophy, and eliminate it, strengthen the body to avoid recurrence. If the polyps have exceeded 1.5cm in size, the symptoms are serious, or there are other suspected signs of cancer or cancer, surgery should be performed first.
