A member asked:

Could my diagnosis of a colon tubular villus adenomatous polyp of 1.5 cm have a link with possible adenomayosis in my uterus?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No: They are very different processes, though they sound similar. The former could be pre malignant, the latter isn't . That's why we do colonoscopies, so we can remove polyps early on- as in your case. That was very wise from your part.
