Cervical polyp

Does anyone know how long is reasonable to wait for removal. Four weeks ago the nurse during routine smear tried to get a doctor in to see me but there was no one available at the time she said it was quite large. Been referred to gynaecologist and they say I am not down as urgent and due to covid it could take 6 months to be seen. GP says not high risk even though I have been sin 3 before though many years ago. Cervical smear was negative but reading a polyp can give you a false test.  Is it too long to wait, what do I do?

  • Hi Susan,

    Just to try to reassure you, I had a cervical polyp a couple of years back and just like you I had to wait around 6 months to have it removed. Like you, I was told it wasn't urgent. It was absolutely fine, a very simple procedure that took literally 5 minutes. Please try not to worry
