A member asked:
Im 32 yrs old and 11weeks wks pregnant. can a small uterine polyp cause higher miscarriage rate than if i didnt have a polyp? cancer worry as well?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Polyps & pregnancy: Uterine polyps can interfere with implantation of a fertilized ovum as well as grow under the influence of pregnancy hormones. As a result, if the polyp grows rapidly it can compete fro space in the intrauterine cavity with the existing pregnancy increasing the risk of miscarriage. Bleeding during pregnancy is also noted.
