A cervical polyp is a small, abnormal growth on the cervix or in the cervical canal. These are benign growths arising from the endocervical mucosa, commonly affecting women of reproductive age. These are soft, pedunculated lesions ranging from a few millimeters to several centimeters and are often asymptomatic but may present with intermenstrual bleeding or post coital spotting. Etiology includes hormonal changes, chronic inflammation of the cervix, sexually transmitted infections (STIs), Yeast infections, Bacterial infections, Hormonal changes, Pregnancy, Miscarriage & Abortion. Diagnosis is typically achieved through clinical visualization during routine gynaecological examination, with ultrasonography or histopathological analysis employed to exclude malignancy. Diagnosis is typically achieved through clinical visualization during routine gynaecological examination, or with ultrasonography or histopathological analysis employed to exclude malignancy. In Ayurveda, cervical polyp is co-related with yoni arshas. According to sushruta the aggravated doshas reach yoni, producing soft, foul smelling unctuous, bleeding muscular sprouts (umbrella shaped), if ignored it causes destruction of yoni and artava. Same explained by Acharaya Vaghbhata. Modern management generally involves polypectomy or surgical excision but in Ayurveda sthanik chikitsa (kshar karma) yoni prakshalan and yoni pichu therapies are involved which targets root dosha imbalance for holistic cure.
