A member asked:

What can happen if i have a cervical polyp removed?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Bleeding: Usually, cervical polypectomies are very simple procedures in which the polyp is grasped with an instrument and twisted off. Rarely, bleeding can occur which may necessitate a stitch or cautery.
