Endocervical Polyp as a Cause of Genital Bleeding in the Second Half of Pregnancy: A Case Report.

Cervical polyps are typically benign exophytic lesions that are often asymptomatic and small during pregnancy. However, they can occasionally cause significant symptoms, leading to gestational complications. A lack of awareness of this condition, combined with inadequate diagnosis and treatment, can pose risks to maternal and fetal health, potentially resulting in complications or pregnancy loss. This case report describes a 36-year-old primigravida at 23 weeks of gestation who presented with sudden vaginal bleeding. Physical examination revealed an exophytic cervical lesion, which was successfully treated with polypectomy, allowing the pregnancy to progress to term without further bleeding. This case underscores the importance of promptly diagnosing the etiology of vaginal bleeding in the second half of pregnancy and considering endocervical polyps as a potential cause, emphasizing early diagnosis and intervention to reduce maternal and fetal risks.
