Endometrial polyps represent a limited focal, circumscribed overgrowth of the endometrium. They are often found in perimenopausal women. Here we present a case of a 25-year-old infertile lady admitted with chief complaint of frequent heavy prolonged menstrual bleeding. She underwent total abdominal hysterectomy with bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy. On gross examination of the uterus, there were multiple endometrial polyps filling the entire endometrial cavity. Histopathology revealed adenomyomatous endometrial polyps.
