Polyp facts

Uterine polyps, once removed, can recur. It's possible that you might need to undergo treatment more than once if you experience recurring uterine polyps.
Some say that uterine polyps can lead to infertility. This issue still requires further testing, but if a woman has uterine polyps and she's experiencing infertility, the removal of the polyps may improve her fertility.
The presence of uterine polyps also increases the risk of miscarriage for pregnant women. Women who enter into in-vitro fertilization (IVF) treatment are generally advised to have uterine polyps removed before conducting any embryo transfer procedure.
