Other testing: Polyps are easy to find and easy to remove. Ask your doctor for a saline infused sonohystogram or a hysteroscopy. Either of these could determine if a polyp is present. Polyp removals are quite simple. They can often be done in the office or as an outpatient surgery

I'm 28, premenopausal. Periods regular. Do get occasional mid cycle bleeding. Might have 1cm polyp in lower part of my uterus. What are the chances of it being cancer if I really got a polyp? I probably had it for long time.. At least 4 months.
