Causes of cervical hypertrophy

Cervical hypertrophy is a type of gynecological disease. So what causes cervical hypertrophy? Severe cervicitis can cause endometritis, salpingo-oophoritis, fallopian tube adhesions and obstruction, leading to infertility. The following experts will introduce the causes of cervical hypertrophy.

Cervical hypertrophy refers to a disease in which the cervix is ​​uniformly enlarged and accompanied by varying degrees of uterine bleeding. Its clinical manifestations include excessive menstruation and prolonged menstruation; it can also be manifested as a cycle shortened to about 20 days, with no significant changes in menstrual volume and duration; or it can be manifested as prolonged menstruation but little bleeding. There is lower abdominal pain and waist and abdominal pain during menstruation, and a large amount of leucorrhea at ordinary times. Gynecological examination shows no other positive findings except for the uniform enlargement of the uterus.

The main causes of cervical hypertrophy are:

(1) Chronic inflammation and long-term stimulation cause cervical congestion and edema, and proliferation of cervical glands and stroma, leading to varying degrees of cervical hypertrophy.

(2) Mucus retention may occur deep in the cervical glands, forming cysts of varying sizes and causing cervical hypertrophy.

Cervical hypertrophy can sometimes be 2 to 4 times larger than a normal cervix. The surface of the cervix can be smooth or eroded. The texture of the cervix is ​​generally hard, which is caused by the proliferation of fibrous connective tissue. Cervical hypertrophy generally does not require treatment. If there is erosion, cervical erosion can be treated.

The surface of the enlarged cervix may also erode due to injury or inflammation, and the squamous epithelium may fall off and the columnar epithelium may proliferate, forming erosion. After the inflammation is treated, the local congestion and edema of the cervix subsides, and the surface of the cervix is ​​covered with squamous epithelium again, returning to a smooth state. However, the proliferating connective tissue does not subside and still exists, so the appearance of the enlarged cervix is ​​maintained, and sometimes it may even increase by 1-2 times or more.

The main clinical symptom of cervical hypertrophy is increased vaginal discharge. In addition, due to the proliferation of connective tissue and the spread of inflammation along the cervix or through the uterosacral ligament to the pelvic cavity, patients often complain of lumbar pain or perineal swelling, which are two prominent symptoms of cervical hypertrophy.

The above is the expert's introduction to the causes of cervical hypertrophy. The pathogens that cause cervical hypertrophy include mycoplasma, chlamydia, bacteria, and viruses. It is recommended that patients go to the hospital's gynecology department for a cervical secretion examination and receive symptomatic treatment based on the examination results. In addition, this site wishes patients a speedy recovery and continued happy life.
