Led by Dr. Tanvir, a renowned expert in hysteroscopy and advanced gynecological care, the Advance Gynecology Center at Tanvir Hospital, Hyderabad, offers comprehensive evaluation and world-class treatment of Endometrial Polyps through minimally invasive techniques, including office hysteroscopy.
Endometrial polyps, also called uterine polyps, are non-cancerous overgrowths of the inner lining of the uterus (endometrium). These soft, finger-like growths can vary in size from a few millimeters to several centimeters and may be single or multiple. They are most common in women between 35 and 55 years of age, but can occur at any age.
While some women may be asymptomatic, common symptoms include:
- Irregular menstrual bleeding
- Heavy or prolonged periods (menorrhagia)
- Bleeding between periods (spotting)
- Postmenopausal bleeding
- Infertility or difficulty conceiving
- Pelvic discomfort or cramps
If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms, an early evaluation can help prevent complications and ease your discomfort.
The exact cause isn’t always known, but several risk factors include:
- Hormonal imbalances (excess estrogen)
- Obesity
- Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS)
- Tamoxifen use (a breast cancer drug)
- Postmenopausal hormonal changes
- Diagnosis of Endometrial Polyps
At Advance Gynecology Center, we use advanced diagnostic tools for accurate detection:
- Transvaginal Ultrasound
- Saline Infusion Sonography (SIS)
- Diagnostic Hysteroscopy – A gold-standard procedure that allows direct visualization of the uterine cavity.
- Watchful Waiting
Small, asymptomatic polyps may not require immediate removal, especially in premenopausal women. Regular monitoring is advised.
- Medical Management
Hormonal treatments may help reduce symptoms temporarily, but polyps often recur when medication stops.
- Hysteroscopic Polypectomy (Most Recommended)
A minimally invasive, same-day procedure using a hysteroscope to visualize and remove polyps from inside the uterus. This can be done in two ways:
Office Hysteroscopy (no general anesthesia)
Operative Hysteroscopy under short anesthesia (for larger or multiple polyps)
- No anesthesia or hospital admission required
- Minimal discomfort – often likened to a pelvic exam
- Quick recovery and same-day return to routine
- Precise, real-time visualization
- Fertility-preserving and uterus-sparing
- Cost-effective and convenient
- Performed by experts in hysteroscopic surgery
Dr. Tanvir is a recognized national and international faculty in hysteroscopy, offering the highest standard of care with precision and compassion.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Q1. Are endometrial polyps cancerous?
A: Most endometrial polyps are benign (non-cancerous). However, a small percentage—especially in postmenopausal women—may have precancerous or cancerous changes. Hysteroscopic removal allows for biopsy and confirmation.
Q2. Can polyps affect fertility?
A: Yes, polyps can interfere with embryo implantation or cause miscarriages. Removing them often improves fertility outcomes.
Q3. How long does hysteroscopic removal take?
A: Office hysteroscopic polypectomy usually takes 15 to 30 minutes.
Q4. Is there any downtime after office hysteroscopy?
A: Most women resume normal activities the same day. Mild cramping or spotting may occur for 1–2 days.
Q5. Will the polyps come back?
A: There is a small chance of recurrence, especially if hormonal imbalances persist. Regular follow-ups and ultrasound can help monitor any regrowth.
Q6. Is the procedure painful?
A: Office hysteroscopy causes minimal discomfort, and most patients tolerate it very well without anesthesia.
Q7. When should I see a doctor?
A: If you notice abnormal bleeding, infertility, or have postmenopausal spotting, schedule an appointment at our center for evaluation.
If you’re experiencing irregular bleeding, infertility issues, or discomfort, don’t wait. Schedule your consultation with Dr. Tanvir at Advance Gynecology Center, Hyderabad, and take the first step toward safe, gentle, and effective treatment.
