Causes and cure of uterine polyps

 
Uterine polyps are elongated overgrowths of tissue within the uterus. They may be endometrial in origin or they may contain a "fibroid" within them. Endometrial polyps may occur due to several reasons including abnormal hormonal balance, abnormal sensitivity of the endometrium to hormones etc. Some endometrial cancers present as polypoidal growths. The treatment of uterine polyps depends upon the cause. You must consult a gynaecologist to find out the cause of the polyp and then get appropriate treatment.
