What is the cause for Endometrial Polyps? I have one, 10x10mm not sure if I should get get removed through surgery. One doctor said it's because of sexual activity, is that true? I also have high levels of prolactin. I'm just curious to know if sexual activity causes endometrial polyps, as the doctor seemed very sure that it does, and I am not sexually active.

Sexual activity does not produce endometrial polyp. Having a polyp causes bleeding after sexual intercourse..
