The etiology of uterine fibroids The formation of uterine fibroids is related to estrogen

Uterine fibroids are common benign tumors in women and should be treated in time, but first we must understand the cause of the disease in order to effectively treat the disease. So what is the cause of uterine fibroids? The occurrence of this disease is closely related to the estrogen in women's bodies, so we must control the secretion of estrogen in the body.

The formation of uterine fibroids is related to long-term and large amounts of estrogen stimulation. Animal experiments have shown that high-fat foods promote the production and release of certain hormones, so the incidence of uterine fibroids in obese women increases significantly. Therefore, cultivating good eating habits has a certain inhibitory effect on uterine fibroids.

At present, the cause of uterine fibroids is still unclear, but it is still believed to be related to estrogen stimulation. However, uterine fibroids are divided into three types according to the growth site. Not all fibroids have symptoms. Some people do a census and find that the uterine fibroids are so large that they can be touched. This is like being three months pregnant, and surgery is necessary.

The exact cause is unknown, but it may be related to excessive estrogen levels in the body and long-term estrogen stimulation.

1. It occasionally occurs in women after menarche and is more common in middle-aged women. After menopause, fibroids stop growing and gradually shrink.

2. Endometrial hyperplasia and multiple myomas.

Patients with ovarian granulosa cell tumor and theca cell tumor (which can secrete estrogen) often have uterine fibroids.

4. Estrogen levels increase during pregnancy and fibroids grow rapidly.

Exogenous estrogen can accelerate the growth of uterine fibroids.
