Uterine Polyp!!! Might be the reason for my miscarriage

[wrknonit]

Hello everyone.  Well last night I went to the docs and he found a uterine polyp in my uterus.  it is very small...smaller then 1 cm.  i have read a lot online...it seems like usually anything over 2 cm is a cause for cocern.  I have also read a lot about it being a possible risk/cause for miscarriage.  As you know I had one not to long ago and another one before that.  The surgery is pretty expensive.  I am getting ready to ovulate this month and I was really looking forward to trying.  The doc said that I should hold off and then next month go on birth control for a month and he will remove it!!! It is a 2800 dollar surgery...for something he himself says that it may or may not have caused the miscarriage...and even if it did it might not necessarily cause it the next time!  rrrrrrrr!  I don't know what to do.  My hubby and I have discussed possibly just going for it this month and seeing what God has planned...and hopefully the baby wont implant anywhere near the dang thing.  Or we will remove the stinking polyp and wait till Jan. (after being on bc rrrrrr for a month!) and try again.  What to do...what to do!?  Oh....the other times I tried I got prego right away...so there is a good chance that I would get prego this month if I tried...the doc looked at my ovaries last night with the water sonogram and said that I was very very fertile.  DH wants me to do the surgery but that is just because he is scared that I will miscarry again and he doesn't want to see me go through the pain again!....makes sense.  What do you girls think?!

Yikes I don't know!  Did the doctor say it has to come out??  Or it could be okay?  I almost am  like you and want to say try again!!!  But, I don't know.  Why do you have to go on birth control for a month?  Couldn't you just abstain from sex the month after your surgery?

Also, is there any risk in the surgery to remove it?

Well there is a small risk..I have been researching it all day.  It is actually a very easy very small risk involved surgery.  I spoke to my doc and he doesn't think the birth control is going to do any harm to me except make it easier to get rid of it next month.  There is a chance that it could not even effect my next pregnancy at all....and then there is also a chance that it could.  we don't know.  is it worth the risk?  is 2800 worth the risk to try again and possibly go through another heart break?  when i could possibly have a perfectly healthy pregnancy without removing it.  i mean what did women used to do?  a lot of women have polyps!!! and mine is very very small.  i could get prego again and nothing happen....and know that it would have been a waste to remove the little thing.  and then if i miscarry again....remove the sucker.  i don't know...it is good to know that you kinda think the same thing that maybe i should just go for it.  i mean my concern is i don't want to risk another healthy baby.....but am i being selfish not doing everything i can to prevent the miscarriage?  I mean wont God make it work with the polyp if it meant to be or is this God's was of working through a doctor to help me!!!?  I keep praying that no matter the wait that God wont let the miscarriage happen to me again...I would rather wait.  I don't know...maybe I should just have unprotected sex and if it happens...great...we will see what happens...if it doesn't then I will go ahead with the surgery? what do you thinK?
