A member asked:
What is the risk in % that a 6mm uterus polyp be cancerous if after being removed gyn said it is benign. uterus & ovaries normal. age is 56 yrs?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Pathology report?: If the uterine polyp was sent for analysis to the pathology lab and that report by the pathologist was benign- then it is unlikely to be cancer. Ask the gyn for a copy of that report for your records and peace of mind.
