A member asked:
Had colonoscopy had 9 adenomas out of 13 polyps removed. what would be helpful to prevent them from coming back ?

Controversial: Daily aspirin may prevent or reduce the incidence of polyps, but the drug is not without risks. Get colonoscopy in less than 5 years to ensure that any new polyps are removed before those get a chance to become malignant. Wish you good health!
