Why does endometrial tuberculosis affect pregnancy?

As we all know, endometrial tuberculosis is a common gynecological disease that affects women's health. Many patients will become anxious after being diagnosed, which is very detrimental to the patient's recovery. Here I will introduce to you why endometrial tuberculosis affects pregnancy, hoping to help patients with endometrial tuberculosis look at this disease more objectively.

First, although the endometrium is shed periodically, its basal layer does not shed with it. Once there is chronic tuberculosis in the basal layer, it can infect the functional layer of the endometrium for a long time, leading to chronic endometrial tuberculosis. The existence of tuberculous endometrial tuberculosis has the same mechanism.

Second, long-standing fallopian tube and ovarian tuberculosis or severe cervical tuberculosis can lead to chronic endometrial tuberculosis.

Third, intrauterine contraceptive devices can cause chronic endometrial tuberculosis.

Fourth, a small amount of placenta remains after delivery or abortion, or incomplete restoration of the placental attachment part is often the cause of chronic endometrial tuberculosis.

5. For women after menopause, due to the significant decrease in estrogen levels in the body, the endometrium and vaginal mucosa become thinner and more susceptible to invasion by pathogens, leading to the occurrence of tuberculosis. Clinically, senile endometrial tuberculosis and vaginal tuberculosis often coexist.

6. Submucosal tuberculosis of the uterus and mucosal polyps may also lead to chronic endometrial tuberculosis.

7. Chronic endometrial tuberculosis may also exist without obvious causes, and the pathogens mostly come from the flora in the vagina.

Through the above content, we know that endometrial tuberculosis can be caused by primary tuberculosis, or it can be caused by fallopian tube tuberculosis or severe cervical tuberculosis. In addition, placental residues in the uterus may also cause endometrial tuberculosis. I hope everyone can pay attention to it. After the diagnosis of endometrial tuberculosis, patients should seek professional doctors for treatment. I wish everyone can achieve better treatment results.
