Overview

Polyps, also known as uterine polyps or endometrial polyps, are growths that develop in the lining of the uterus. They are typically noncancerous and vary in size and shape.

A uterine polyp is a small, fleshy growth that may form within the uterine wall's inner lining, called the endometrium. Uterine polyps can occur in women of reproductive age but are more common in women going through or have completed menopause. The exact cause of the condition is not fully understood, but it is thought to be related to hormonal imbalances.  Multiple polyps can occur, and some may grow along the lower region of the uterus, extending from the cervix.

Uterine Polyps Symptoms

In many cases, endometrial polyps are asymptomatic and may go unnoticed. However, when symptoms occur, they can include:

  • Irregular menstrual bleeding
  • Abnormal uterine bleeding
  • Pelvic pain or discomfort

Uterine Polyps Causes

Endometrial polyps may be linked to changes in hormone levels. It may be due to the changes in estrogen levels that happen just before and during menopause.
