Fibroid: This is a fibroid that is dangling within the uterine cavity. Depending on size they can be removed in the office or the operating room with a camera through the cervix and a device to cut it off/out. The risk of the polyp is mainly due to heavier and more painful periods and there is little to no risk of cancer... I hope that helps for whoever you are posting for.
