Uterine fibroids are more common in middle-aged women

Uterine fibroids are a common gynecological disease. Clinically, we have found that middle-aged women are more likely to suffer from uterine fibroids. Hospital experts said that middle-aged women are prone to uterine fibroids mainly due to unreasonable diet, depression and unreasonable contraception.

1. Unreasonable diet

Women who are partial or picky eaters and women who mainly eat meat have a higher chance of developing uterine fibroids because of uneven nutritional intake, especially middle-aged women. The body's regulation becomes unbalanced and bacteria invade, which can easily lead to various gynecological diseases, especially uterine fibroids, a high-incidence disease.

2. Depression

Middle-aged women face the dual mental pressure of work and family, and are prone to depression. With the arrival of menopause, women begin to enter the estrogen control period. During this period, women's own depression can easily increase the secretion of estrogen, which in turn stimulates the uterus, and the formation of fibroids becomes inevitable. Therefore, this is also the cause of uterine fibroids.

3. Unreasonable contraceptive measures

The constant stimulation caused by multiple miscarriages can also cause uterine fibroids. Middle-aged women may have had miscarriages or undergone certain uterine cavity surgeries in their early years. In some cases, the uterine cavity is damaged, and bacteria will invade, leading to inflammation, such as pelvic inflammatory disease. Or spread to the adnexal area, causing uterine fibroids.

Middle-aged women face multiple pressures from work, life, and children. Many gynecological diseases are prone to occur in middle age, which is related to long-term depression and tension. These gynecological diseases can become malignant due to the influence of emotions and cause serious harm to the body. Middle-aged women should pay attention to reducing stress and maintain a good attitude before menopause.
