Removing Womb Polyps by Hysteroscopy
The NHS explains that polyps can be removed during a hysteroscopy, in which a thin camera is passed through the vagina and cervix into the womb. Saline is used to widen the womb for a clear view.
It can be done in a clinic with pain relief or under general anaesthetic or sedation.
