My doctor says that I have a uterine polyp, and I'd like to find out more about them.

A uterine polyp is a non-cancerous growth on the uterus. It can be removed by a doctor using a procedure called a hysteroscopy. This involves inserting a thin tube into your uterus through your vagina. The doctor then uses a camera to examine the polyp and remove it if necessary.
