Suggest Treatment For Vaginal Bleeding
Question: On 3/21 I had some vaginal bleeding. Approximately 1-2 Tsp. I was examined by an Ob/Gyn and a polyp on my cervix was removed on 3/32. A follow-up ultrasound showed another polyp in my uterus which otherwise looked normal. I go in on 4/24 for an endoscopy of the uterus to r/o cancer. I have had no other bleeding since March.
Could the polyp in my uterus have caused the bleeding I experienced?
