Endometrial Polyps hysteroscopy twice in 23 months

Hi all, just wondering if any one has been in the same situation. 23 months ago went through fast track and had hysteroscopy and polyps removed, biospy came back negative. About 2 months ago had back ache, cramps and spotting went away, happened again went to gp, exam and referral 2 week fast track.

So just had scans and showed womb thickening and growth what they suspect is a polyp possibly two  found again.They have fast tracked me for hysteroscopy, and further exams under general so they can have a look around..Want to check changes in lining of womb and biospy. , consulatant was lovely, did say its unusal to get them again so quickly, which is again why the fast track. Wasnt worried just thought its the same as last time but then little worried due to only having had  this procedure 23 months ago. Just looking for some reassurance if this has happened to anyone else.

thanks.

    Hi

    I had this procedure twice in just over 2 years.

    1st time in 2021 scan showed thickening and I had intermittent bleeding. Hysteroscopy found a polyp which was removed and biopsy negative.

    2nd time a few months ago same again, intermittent bleeding. Again scan showed thickening but also a large cyst on ovary, but hysterectomy found a polyp which was removed and again biopsy negative on that.

    I did have an ablation after the 1st time but unfortunately this failed and due to the cyst (and not knowing if its cancerous) and the polyps that have come back twice in short space of time I am having a total hysterectomy on 27th June...terrified

    I’m terrified of having a hysterectomy as well, I’m hoping I can postpone mine until mid August as we are booked to take our grandchildren away, will have to cancel our trip to Crete in September as well…also because they found precancerous cells in one or more of my polyps I will have another wait after hysterectomy because they send it all off for biopsy again to make sure there are no cancel cells, 2023 has been a year of worry for me and I’m fed up with it.

    wising you a speedy recovery after your op x
