A member asked:
Mom 68 did pap 7months ago and was clean the dr found cervical or uterine polyp and asked to be removed,could it still be cancerous if pap was clear?

Unlikely to be Cance: Polyps are usually benign. But they need to be removed as some of them can change into cancer over a period of time. I agree with removal.
