Recurrent PMB is common in women with a previous episode of PMB. Compared to patients with a single episode of PMB, patients with recurrent PMB and benign histological outcomes at accurate workup during their first episode were less often diagnosed with malignancies and more frequently with benign polyps. Benign polyps at first PMB are predictive for recurrent PMB, but not for a higher risk of (pre)malignancy.
