A member asked:

How does a dr remove a polyp from the cervix?

A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dr. Albert Pizzo answered

Polyp-cervix: Usually polyps are removed by a surgeon using a cutting method or laser to remove or destroy the polyp. This is usually a minor procedure unless the polyp is very large.
