However I do not have any symptoms.Please advise as I do not want to go for another polypectomy. Also let me know if I can try ayurveda or homeopathy to get rid of polyps. Thanks

Hi,
Surgical excision and biopsy of polyp is advisable as it can convert into pre-malignant lesion and Medical Therapy doesn't seem sufficient. There is no scientific evidence of treatment in alternative medicines as you mentioned and it may cause delay in treatment so must not be sought hence.
Wishing you a speedy recovery. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
