To think my uterine polyp came out on its own?!

[DarkGreen]

I am waiting for a procedure date for a uterine polyp removal but (TMI ALERT) I just felt something 'passing through' (I'm on my period) and when I checked it looked just like the polyp...

I'm really freaked out!

Hi update on my appointment.
Went to the hospital appointment this morning as scheduled. The lady doctor was lovely in stoke . She took my polyp out for me i didnt feel a thing . She as sent my polyp off for a biopsy have to wait 3 wks for results . But she said everything looks ok .

My gynaecologist said it would be painless but I didn't believe her to I kept my polyp 😂

@Sr69
I had a cervical polyp some years ago. The GP noticed it when I had smear test so did a gynae referral. I was told in the literature beforehand that I might have local anaesthetic so was pretty terrified imagining what that would be like down below.

Basically I was put with my legs in stirrups and it was removed (no anaesthetic) and I didn't feel a thing. The Consultant held it up and even my DH, who was in the office next door, heard him say that it was like a beautiful cherry.

It was sent away for biopsy and results were back in a couple of days (maybe it was quick as I used my private healthcare).

So don't worry. It was very quick and painless.

Thank you for your post yesterday . Im really worried i have to go and see a gynaecologist tomorrow morning . Glad you.had your polyps sorted .x

sr69 they are very common. I've had several, they come and go.

You can get them removed, some doctors don't bother.

Pic or it never happened

Hi Sr69, definitely start a new thread. Many people won't read the full thread and will just jump straight to answering the original poster. Hope you get some comforting answers soon

[Houseonahill]

sr69 you're probably better starting your own thread than resurrecting and old one

I had one and was reffered to another hospital for a scan and it was gone. The dr said it's quite common - apparently sometimes they have people in surgery and it's already gone! Didn't feel or see it come out though.

Just remembered when I had phil (my last polyp) I used to have huge clots, I imagine from where the blood collected around it - I have no medical knowledge to back this up, but thought it worth sharing.

[Snowflakes1122]

My mums came out whilst out shopping. Freaked her out as she didn't even know she had polyps.

Hopefully that's it gone for you now.

Crikey! Well I guess that a scan could confirm that?

My uterine polyp was the cause of my recurrent miscarriages and infertility. I wish that had happened to me!

[carabos]

It's not likely that it was the polyp - they're pretty firmly fastened in. Much more likely to be a clot or just rubbish tissue. I used to pass all sorts of stuff. My procedure didn't work but eventually Mother Nature sorted it out with the menopause.

Don't worry, but mention it to the team when you go next.

[theaveragewife]

they can come out? I've had a few removed but would love to see one! I imagine them to look like mushrooms with think stalks - did it?

[MouldyPeach]

Doctor google suggests it happens

[DarkGreen]

Common thing

[DarkGreen]

I'll speak to my GP in the morning but I'm not sure what else it could be. I only had the scan this week and they didn't see anything else. I was hoping it was a coming thing so now I'm completely freaked out!
