in my opinion no: In the US if you have an endometrial polyp it should b removed by doing a simple in office hysteroscopy, sometimes u may need an in office Myosure to remove it , BC pills will not make an endometrial polyp go away, u want it removed because it can cause abnormal bleeding, infertility and possible misc if u do conceive.
