summary

My wife always felt a little uncomfortable, so she took her to the hospital for examination, but the result was that she had cervical polyps. We had been preparing for pregnancy, but the doctor suggested that we treat the disease first. Today, let me talk about whether cervical polyps affect fertility.

Does cervical polyp affect fertility

First: the occurrence of cervical polyps is due to chronic inflammation long-term stimulation, resulting in cervical endometrial hyperplasia accumulation, more common in married women. The main symptom of cervical polyps is the increase of leucorrhea, cervical polyps will affect fertility, so it is recommended to actively accept treatment. The mucus at the cervical orifice forms mucus plug, which prevents sperm from entering the uterine cavity, thus hinders the encounter of sperm and egg, and eventually leads to infertility.

Second: cervical polyps also have some adverse effects on delivery. If found, polypectomy should be performed in time, the time should be within one month before delivery. If you give birth soon after removal, the newly healed wound will have slight bleeding due to cervical dilatation. If the polyp removal time is long, the wound healed well, generally will not bleed, as long as the polyp is removed clean, there is no impact on fertility.

Third: the culprit of cervical polyps is chronic cervicitis, inflammation will produce a lot of inflammatory secretions. The secretion contains a lot of red blood cells, white blood cells and pathogenic bacteria. Thus destroying the internal vaginal physiological environment, resulting in decreased sperm motility, sperm survival time is also gradually shortened, pregnancy rate is reduced. It can be seen that the impact of cervical polyps on fertility will reduce the amount of sperm, thereby reducing the pregnancy rate.
