I’m 9 weeks postpartum
I went in to get my coil looked at in which the scanner said that it was in the urine lining now they changed their minds
I’ve been getting pain and bleeding between periods, i thought it was because the coil was in the wrong place and now they think it’s because if the polyps trying no to panic but they said they want to remove it within the month .. and for that on the nhs the c word starts coming to mind. Anyone any history of polyps or postpartum polyps?

I did actually have endometrial cancer, but when I researched it all beforehand, polyps are nearly always benign. Even if they aren't, endometrial cancer at early stages and grade has a high cure rate through hysterectomy as it tends to be contained within the womb.

Yes my mum had uterine cancer and it presents differently in the lining, (she’s 10 years surviving and going well) sorry you experienced that, hope your doing well
