What is the cause of blurred borders of endometrial polyps?

The blurred borders of endometrial polyps may be caused by early examination, large size, rapid growth, endometritis, and uterine fluid accumulation. It is recommended to seek medical attention in time, identify the cause, and take appropriate improvement or treatment measures under the guidance of a doctor. The specific analysis is as follows:

1. Checking too early: If the examinee is in the ovulation period or menstruation period, the borders of endometrial polyps may be blurred when checking because the endometrium has not completely shed. You can wait until the ovulation period or one week after the end of menstruation to go to the hospital for another follow-up.

2. Large size: Endometrial polyps may be related to high estrogen levels, inflammatory stimulation, etc. If the uterine polyps are large during examination, they may cause local hyperplasia, and the borders will be unclear during imaging examinations. You can follow the doctor's advice to take hysteroscopic polypectomy, which can remove the polyps through surgery to achieve the treatment goal.

3. Rapid growth: If standardized treatment is not given after diagnosis, or if long-term alcoholism, staying up late, smoking, etc. occur during treatment, the growth rate of endometrial polyps will increase, which will also cause the boundaries of endometrial polyps to become blurred, and will also be accompanied by symptoms such as irregular vaginal bleeding and lower abdominal pain. Depending on the condition, treatment can be performed through hysteroscopic polypectomy, curettage, or hysterectomy. Usually, the first two methods are more suitable for women who have fertility needs, while the latter method is more suitable for women who do not have fertility needs. Surgical treatment can avoid recurrence of the disease and damage to health.

4. Endometritis: It may be caused by active sexual life, iatrogenic injury or the spread of inflammation in adjacent organs, which causes bacteria to break through the defense of the cervix and invade the endometrium, causing inflammation and damage, and manifesting symptoms such as lower abdominal pain and abnormal menstruation. Due to long-term local inflammatory stimulation, the boundaries of polyps may be unclear during examination. You can follow the doctor's advice to treat it with drugs such as amoxicillin clavulanate potassium tablets, metronidazole tablets, and clindamycin hydrochloride capsules.

5. Uterine cavity effusion: It may be caused by endometritis, cervical canal obstruction, etc., which leads to the accumulation of fluid, blood or pus in the uterine cavity. If combined with infection and pus accumulation, it may cause symptoms such as lower abdominal pain and increased vaginal discharge. It is easy to make the endometrium congested and edematous, which will also affect the examination results. You can use amoxicillin capsules, azithromycin dispersible tablets, levofloxacin hydrochloride capsules and other drugs for treatment according to the doctor's advice.

During the treatment, you should pay attention to local hygiene and try not to scratch with your hands or have sex, which can easily affect recovery. Patients should also communicate more with their family members to relieve negative emotions and enhance their confidence in overcoming the disease.
