    Uterine polyps may disappear on their own, but this is relatively rare. Uterine polyps are usually benign lesions formed due to local excessive proliferation of the endometrium. Some smaller polyps may fall off naturally during the menstrual cycle, but in most cases medical intervention is required to eliminate them.

    Smaller uterine polyps sometimes fall off naturally with the menstrual cycle. This is more common in patients with smaller polyps and a narrow base. The shedding of the lining of the uterus during menstruation may bring the polyps along with them, causing them to disappear. In addition, some functional polyps are related to changes in hormone levels. When hormone levels return to normal, the polyps may shrink or disappear on their own. However, this condition is uncommon and it is impossible to predict which patients will develop it.

    Larger uterine polyps usually do not go away on their own and require medical intervention. This type of polyps often has a wider base and is closely connected to the endometrium, making it difficult for them to be excreted naturally through menstruation. In addition, polyps are less likely to heal spontaneously if they are accompanied by inflammation, infection, or other pathological changes. Patients may experience symptoms such as abnormal uterine bleeding, increased menstrual flow, and infertility. At this time, they should seek medical treatment in time, confirm the diagnosis through hysteroscopy, and take drug treatment or surgical removal according to the doctor's recommendations.

    It is recommended that patients undergo regular gynecological examinations, especially if abnormal uterine bleeding or infertility symptoms occur, they should seek medical evaluation promptly. Pay attention to keeping the vulva clean in daily life, avoid overexertion, eat a balanced diet, and exercise appropriately to help maintain endocrine balance and endometrial health. If you are diagnosed with uterine polyps, you should follow the doctor's advice for treatment to avoid delaying the condition.
