Endometrial polyp
Patient aged 53 years had endometrial polyp. It was removed by performing hysterscopy+polypectomy. Lab report states that features consistent benign endometrial polyp. Doctor says there may be chances of recurrence of polyp. When you should get the transvaginal scanning done again (time gap) ?? Or should we get the uterus removed or just follow up with transvaginal scanning once in 3 months??

Most of the polyps are benign so you can just get a follow-up ultrasound done once in six months
