Removal of polyps without curettage of the uterus
A minimally invasive procedure aimed at removing polyps from the uterine cavity without damaging its structure. The method allows you to preserve a woman's reproductive function and increase the chances of a successful pregnancy.
Endometrial polyps are benign growths in the form of a rounded outgrowth on a thin leg that are attached to the mucous membrane of the uterus. They can cause profuse and irregular menstruation, bleeding between cycles, and abdominal pain.
Removal of polyps is important to prevent their growth and possible transformation into malignant tumors. Modern treatment methods allow not only to remove polyps without damaging the surrounding tissues, but also to perform a biopsy to exclude or confirm the presence of atypical cells. The operation is performed without curettage of the uterus, by hysteroscopy, which avoids damage to healthy tissues and the risk of adhesions in the uterine cavity. Careful surgical intervention promotes faster recovery, reduces the risk of complications and preserves a woman's reproductive function.
Before removing polyps, it is necessary to: Consult with a gynecologist Perform general blood and urine tests Perform an ultrasound examination (ultrasound) of the pelvic organs In some cases, hysteroscopy may be required.
Polyps are removed under visual control using a hysteroresectoscope equipped with a video camera. During the procedure, the doctor grabs the leg of the polyp and gently excises it, completely removing the polyp without damaging the surrounding healthy endometrial tissues. After excision, the polyp is aspirated (sucked out) from the uterine cavity. In addition, current cauterization (ablation) or laser techniques can be used to remove polyps, which help destroy the remaining cells of the polyp, reducing the risk of recurrence. All actions are performed inside the uterine cavity under visual control, the operation is practically bloodless and does not require incisions. The whole process takes about 20-30 minutes, and the patient can be discharged from the clinic on the same day.
To remove polyps, the following methods are used: Hysteroscope with video camera Surgical instruments (forceps, resectoscopes)
After removing the polyps, it is important to follow the doctor's recommendations. Spotting and mild discomfort are possible in the first few days after surgery. During this period, it is recommended to avoid physical exertion and not lift weights more than 5 kg, you should refrain from sexual activity, do not visit the sauna and steam room, and avoid hypothermia, especially pelvic organs, for 1-2 months after the procedure.

Stress-free menopause: how hormone therapy helps women
With age, women experience a natural decrease in reproductive function, known as menopause. This process takes a long time and is accompanied by changes in the physical and emotional state, hormonal restructuring and complete cessation of menstruation. On average, menopause (the so-called last menstruation in a woman's life) occurs at the age of 45-55 years, but its precursors may appear earlier, and the process of "restructuring" the body can last for several years. A decrease in the level of female sex hormones leads to unpleasant symptoms that not only worsen the quality of life, but can also contribute to the development of serious diseases. Although menopause is not a disease and does not require treatment, there are methods to improve well-being and prevent complications. One of these methods is menopausal hormone therapy (MGT). The decision on the need and time of MGT is made by a gynecologist. To understand whether such therapy is necessary for all women, it is important to understand the nature and characteristics of menopause.
