In the case, a 29-year-old unmarried woman had regular menstruation, lived a healthy life, and had no bad habits or family history. However, in the past four months, the amount of menstrual bleeding has increased, and the bleeding has even continued after the expected end. It requires long-term dependence on panty liners or sanitary napkins, which affects daily life. She was worried that it might be cancer and was anxious. Despite taking menstrual medications, her symptoms did not improve. She sought treatment at the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology of China Medical University Hsinchu Hospital. Dr. Wu Bingzhong performed ultrasound and outpatient hysteroscopy, and found a 3-centimeter polyp in the uterine cavity. After communication between the doctor and the patient, she underwent non-invasive cold knife hysteroscopy surgery, which only took about 10 minutes. She could go home and rest after one hour of observation without hospitalization. I resumed my normal life the next day, and my menstruation and blood volume have now returned to normal.

Dr. Wu Bingzhong said that cold knife hysteroscopic surgery is different from traditional methods. It uses a 5mm slender instrument to enter the uterine cavity through the vagina without opening the cervix. There is a safety blade on the end of the surgical instrument, which can quickly remove the polyps. The surgical process is fast, requires only mild sleeping anesthesia, and there is almost no pain after the operation. This procedure avoids thermal damage and adhesion to the uterus, preserves the chance of conception, and provides specimens for testing, helping patients maintain a healthy uterine cavity and helping to conceive.

Dr. Wu Bingzhong pointed out that uterine polyps tend to occur in women aged 30 to 60, with the highest incidence in women aged 40 to 50.

Dr. Wu Bingzhong pointed out that uterine polyps mostly occur in women aged 30 to 60 years old, with the highest incidence among women aged 40 to 50 years old. High-risk groups include women with a history of polycystic ovary syndrome, polycystic ovary syndrome, long-term female hormone replacement therapy, or obesity. In addition to controlling your weight, you should have regular ultrasound examinations, record your menstrual cycle, and pay attention to irregular vaginal bleeding. Dr. Wu Bingzhong reminded that some polyps will be naturally discharged with menstruation, but some may persist in the uterine cavity, causing irregular bleeding, increased menstrual blood, and even affecting the pregnancy rate. In severe cases, they may develop into malignant tumors. Therefore, once relevant symptoms appear, you should seek medical advice as soon as possible to avoid delay in treatment.
