James Joshi, a 58-year-old retired schoolteacher,...
James Joshi, a 58-year-old retired schoolteacher, had been experiencing persistent discomfort for months. A widower who lived alone, he was initially too embarrassed to discuss his symptoms, which included a feeling of 'something there' and occasional spotting. His daughter finally convinced him to see his GP, who referred him to a gynaecologist. The specialist discovered several benign, fleshy growths (vaginal polyps) during the examination. The doctor explained that while likely non-cancerous, the lesions were causing his symptoms and should be removed to confirm their nature and provide relief. James felt anxious and vulnerable before the minor surgical procedure, done under local anaesthesia. The removal itself was quick, with minimal discomfort. Biopsy results confirmed benign polyps. In the weeks following, his symptoms completely resolved. Emotionally, James moved from shame and fear to immense relief and gratitude, regretting he hadn't sought help sooner and feeling empowered to prioritise his health.
