A member asked:

Is it more common to get polyps if you have pcos?

A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dr. Kevin O'neil answered

Specializes in Urogynecology

Yes: Women with pcos have a hormonal imbalance that causes them to not ovulate regularly. In addition, they are at greater risk of developing endometrial polyps and endometrial hyperplasia.
