A member asked:
Can uterine polyps be treated with birth control pills?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Probably not: There is at least a theoretic rationale for this but no data. Whether this is even worth considering depends on the certainty of the diagnosis, the size, and the associated symptoms.
