Is abnormal vaginal discharge a symptom of cervical polyps? What are the symptoms of cervical polyps

Cervical polyps are a disease that causes significant harm to women's bodies, leading to irregular bleeding and even infertility. Many people are asking whether cervical polyps can also cause abnormal vaginal discharge when they occur? Today we will provide a detailed introduction.

Is abnormal vaginal discharge also a symptom of cervical polyps?

Cervical polyps are a manifestation of chronic cervicitis, commonly seen in women who have had children. Due to the long-term stimulation of chronic inflammation, the local mucosa of the cervical canal proliferates. When cervical polyps occur, foreign objects are expelled from the uterus, and the proliferating mucosa protrudes towards the outer opening of the cervix to form polyps.

The most common type of cervical polyp is abnormal vaginal discharge. Especially in patients with large polyps, there is an increase in vaginal discharge and bloody vaginal discharge, accompanied by contact bleeding, which occurs after sexual intercourse.

What is the state?

1、 Irregular uterine bleeding. Cervical polyps occur due to excessive or prolonged menstruation, and among women with amenorrhea, there are also women with abnormal uterine bleeding. However, the severity of symptoms and the number and location of polyps are not closely related.

2、 Abdominal pain. Generally speaking, in the second half of menstruation, abdominal pain worsens during menstruation, but gradually disappears as menstruation slowly clears. This is because cervical polyps hinder menstruation at the cervical opening and prevent the normal discharge of menstrual blood.

3、 Infertility. Cervical polyps grow inside the cervical canal, enter the uterine cavity through a mirror, and grow inside the uterine cavity. The implantation of fertilized eggs is affected, and the fertilized eggs cannot implant normally, ultimately leading to infertility.

What are the causes of cervical polyps?

1. Related to endocrine system. In women, estrogen proliferates the endometrium and menstruation is normal, so the occurrence of cervical polyps is closely related to estrogen levels. Low levels of estrogen can cause the occurrence of cervical polyps.

2. Caused by gynecological inflammation. Some women suffer from gynecological inflammation but are not treated promptly or thoroughly, causing inflammation to stimulate the cervix, leading to cervicitis and cervical polyps.

3. Age relationship. With the growth of age, the occurrence of hypertension, obesity, diabetes, and other diseases requires long-term drug use, which will lead to cervical polyps.

In general, if female friends experience the symptoms mentioned above in their daily lives, they should be vigilant about cervical polyps and seek timely diagnosis at the hospital. If it is cervical polyps, it is necessary to treat them in a timely manner, and cooperate with nursing and diet to cure them as soon as possible.
