Three types of women are prone to uterine fibroids

The cause of uterine fibroids is not yet clear, but studies have shown that excessive hormone secretion is one of the causes of uterine fibroids . Compared with young women, middle-aged women in their thirties and forties, especially those who are childless, have an unbalanced sexual life, and are depressed, are more likely to develop uterine fibroids.

1. Women without children enter menopause early

The number of primordial follicles in a woman's lifetime is limited, and she ovulates for about 30 years. During pregnancy and lactation, due to the action of hormones, the ovaries stop ovulating, and do not resume until the 4th to 6th month of lactation. As a result, the ovaries postpone a certain number of ovulations, and women with a history of childbearing enter menopause later. Women who have not given birth cannot get timely and effective protection from progesterone, and are prone to hormone-dependent diseases and uterine fibroids. Authoritative research shows that if a woman has a complete pregnancy process in her lifetime, she can increase her immunity for 10 years, and these 10 years of immunity are mainly aimed at gynecological tumors.

2. Sexual dysfunction affects uterine health

Traditional Chinese medicine classifies the causes of uterine fibroids as "symptoms and masses" (diseases that form lumps in the stomach). The formation of "symptoms and masses" is mostly related to weak vital energy and imbalance of qi and blood. Chinese medicine explains "symptoms and masses": women are emotional, and if the couple is not harmonious, the seven emotions will inevitably be hurt. The seven emotions will hurt the internal organs, and the qi will not flow smoothly, the qi and blood will be imbalanced, and the qi will stagnate and blood will stagnate. If the stagnation lasts for a long time, it can become "symptoms and masses". It can be seen that normal sexual stimulation between husband and wife can promote the normal functioning of neuroendocrine and make the human body secrete hormones normally and well. However, long-term sexual imbalance can easily cause disordered secretion of hormone levels, leading to chronic pelvic congestion, which is also the cause of uterine fibroids.

3. Depressed women are more likely to suffer from uterine fibroids

Middle-aged women face the dual mental pressure of work and family, which makes them 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 and strengthen its effect, which can sometimes last for several months or even years. This is also the cause of uterine fibroids.

This is an introduction to the reasons why the above three types of women are more likely to develop uterine fibroids. Understanding and recognizing the causes of uterine fibroids can help female friends better prevent and treat uterine fibroids.
