Endometrial Polyp Treatment Clinic in London
Expert Diagnosis and Treatment from Consultant Gynaecologists
Endometrial polyps are common growths that develop within the lining of the womb and are a frequent cause of abnormal bleeding. Although most polyps are benign, they can sometimes lead to heavy periods, bleeding between periods, postmenopausal bleeding, and fertility problems. Many women are diagnosed during investigations for abnormal bleeding or following an ultrasound scan.

What Are Endometrial Polyps?
Common Symptoms of Endometrial Polyps
When Should You See a Specialist?
Endometrial Polyp Diagnosis
Diagnosing endometrial polyps involves understanding your symptoms and carrying out appropriate investigations. At Gynaecology Clinic London, your consultation will include a detailed discussion about your symptoms, medical history, and any concerns you may have.
Investigations may include pelvic ultrasound scanning, hysteroscopy, and other specialist tests where appropriate. These investigations can help confirm the diagnosis, assess the size and location of the polyp, and determine whether treatment is recommended. Our aim is to provide an accurate diagnosis and develop a personalised treatment plan tailored to your symptoms, reproductive health, and individual needs.
Endometrial Polyp Treatment Options
Monitoring and Follow-Up
Small polyps that are not causing symptoms may sometimes be monitored, particularly when they are discovered incidentally.
Hysteroscopic Polyp Removal
Hysteroscopy allows endometrial polyps to be removed safely and accurately while providing a detailed assessment of the inside of the womb.
Investigation of Abnormal Bleeding
Further assessment may be recommended to determine whether other factors are contributing to heavy or irregular bleeding.
Fertility Assessment
Endometrial polyps can sometimes affect fertility, and treatment may be recommended as part of fertility investigations or pregnancy planning.
Histological Examination
Polyps removed during treatment are routinely sent for laboratory analysis to confirm the diagnosis and exclude abnormal changes.
Ongoing Monitoring and Follow-Up
Further review may be recommended depending on your symptoms, age, fertility plans, and individual circumstances to ensure appropriate ongoing care.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are endometrial polyps cancerous?
Most endometrial polyps are benign and do not pose a serious health risk. However, because a small proportion may contain abnormal or precancerous changes, polyps removed during treatment are routinely sent for laboratory analysis to confirm the diagnosis and provide reassurance.
Do all endometrial polyps need to be removed?
Not always. Small polyps that are not causing symptoms may sometimes be monitored. However, removal is often recommended if a polyp is causing abnormal bleeding, is discovered after menopause, or is identified during fertility investigations. Your consultant will discuss the most appropriate approach based on your individual circumstances.
How are endometrial polyps removed?
Endometrial polyps are most commonly removed during a hysteroscopy. This minimally invasive procedure allows your consultant to examine the inside of the womb and remove the polyp safely and accurately, often avoiding the need for more invasive surgery.
Is endometrial polyp removal painful?
Most women tolerate treatment well and experience only mild discomfort or cramping. Your consultant will explain the procedure in detail beforehand and discuss the most appropriate options to ensure you are as comfortable and reassured as possible throughout treatment.
Can endometrial polyps come back?
Yes. Although treatment is usually successful, endometrial polyps can occasionally recur. Depending on your symptoms, age, and medical history, your consultant may recommend follow-up to monitor your ongoing gynaecological health.
Can I get pregnant with an endometrial polyp?
Many women with endometrial polyps conceive naturally and go on to have successful pregnancies. However, in some cases, polyps may interfere with implantation or contribute to fertility problems. Treatment may improve reproductive outcomes in selected women.
What happens after an endometrial polyp is removed?
Following removal, the polyp is routinely sent for laboratory analysis to confirm the diagnosis and exclude abnormal changes. Most women recover quickly, and your consultant will discuss the results and whether any further treatment or follow-up is required.
Do endometrial polyps become more common after menopause?
Yes. Endometrial polyps are more common during the years leading up to menopause and after menopause. Because postmenopausal bleeding should always be investigated, specialist assessment is important to identify the cause and ensure appropriate management.
