What are the symptoms of endometrial polyps?

Symptoms of endometrial polyps include irregular vaginal bleeding, infertility, abdominal pain, abnormal leucorrhea and some other symptoms. They are as follows:

1. Irregular vaginal bleeding: This is one of the most common symptoms, manifested as intermenstrual bleeding, excessive menstrual flow or irregular bleeding.

2. Infertility: Endometrial polyps may affect the implantation and development of the fertilized egg, especially when the polyps are located in front of the cervical canal or fallopian tube opening, which will hinder the passage of sperm and lead to infertility.

3. Abdominal pain: Abdominal pain often starts in the second half of menstruation, progressively worsens, and gradually disappears after the menstruation is over.

4. Abnormal leucorrhea: A small number of patients with larger polyps may experience increased leucorrhea or blood in their leucorrhea.

5. Other symptoms: Some patients may not have any symptoms and only discover them during physical examination. Pelvic B-ultrasound examination may reveal slightly higher echoes in the uterine cavity.

Patients should pay attention to personal hygiene and develop good living and work habits.
