Endometrial hyperplasia poses three major risks, and patients may not know if it's okay

The occurrence of endometrial hyperplasia, especially its clear harm, must be effectively prevented with reasonable lifestyle habits in daily life.

Causes of endometrial hyperplasia

1. Endocrine functional tumors: Endocrine functional tumors are rare tumors, accounting for 7.5%. The gonadotropic function of the pituitary gland is abnormal, and ovarian granulosa cell tumors are also tumors that continuously secrete estrogen.

2. Simple hyperplasia of the endometrium: The reason for endometrial thickening is that the affected uterus is slightly larger, with obvious thickening and sometimes presenting as diffuse polyps. The volume of curettage is large and can mix with red smooth polyp like tissue. Microscopically, the lesion is diffuse, affecting the functional and basal layers of the endometrium, with simultaneous proliferation of the stroma and glands, and no congestion of the glands. Glands vary in size and have smooth contours. The morphology of glandular epithelial cells is similar to that of normal late proliferative stages and does not exhibit heteromorphism.

3. Obesity: In obese women, androstenedione secreted by the adrenal gland is converted into estrone through the action of aromatase in adipose tissue; The more adipose tissue, the stronger the conversion ability, and the higher the level of estrogen in the plasma, resulting in sustained estrogenic effects.

4. Complex proliferation of the endometrium: The causes of complex proliferation are roughly similar to simple proliferation, but due to the local nature of the stove, it may be related to the distribution of hormone receptors in the tissue. Unlike simple hyperplasia, focal hyperplasia with glandular components does not affect the stroma. The amount of curettage material can be small, often mixed with normal, atrophic, or other types of endometrial hyperplasia.

Hazards of endometrial hyperplasia

1. Menstrual disorders: Menstrual disorders are the cause of endometrial hyperplasia, irregular vaginal bleeding, low menstrual flow, and excessive bleeding after or after amenorrhea. Commonly referred to as anovulatory dysfunction.

2. Infertility: Female endometrial hyperplasia and infertility. The endometrium is influenced by hormone levels in the body, and excessive hyperplasia is mainly caused by changes in hormone levels. This not only affects menstruation, but also may affect normal ovulation. If the levels of estrogen and progesterone in the body are abnormal, it may even lead to infertility.

3. Causing cancer: Female endometrial hyperplasia has a certain tendency towards cancer. According to the survey, the canceration rate of atypical hyperplasia is 23%, among which the canceration rate of severe atypical hyperplasia can reach 30% -50%, so it is classified as a precancerous lesion.
