Hi,
I think a scan is necessary to know the nature of polyp and accordingly the management has to be done, if it's a simple polyp then simple polypectomy is required, otherwise a hysterectomy may also be required.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
