What is the cause of uterine cyst?

Treatments for uterine cysts include medication and surgery. The specific method depends on the type of cyst and symptoms. The cause of its formation is related to hormone levels, inflammation and genetic factors.

1. Abnormal hormone levels are a common cause of uterine cysts. Imbalance between estrogen and progesterone may lead to excessive proliferation of the endometrium and the formation of cysts. Adjusting hormone levels can be achieved through oral contraceptives or hormone replacement therapy, such as Diane-35, Yasmin, etc.

2. Chronic inflammation such as pelvic inflammatory disease and cervicitis may induce uterine cysts. Inflammation stimulates the endometrium and causes cyst formation. Antibiotics such as amoxicillin and cephalosporins can be used to treat inflammation, along with anti-inflammatory drugs such as ibuprofen.

3. Genetic factors may also increase the risk of uterine cysts. Women with a family history of uterine cysts need regular checkups. Early detection can be controlled with medication, such as progesterone drugs.

4. Endometriosis is a potential cause of uterine cysts. Ectopic endometrial tissue may form cysts in the uterus. In severe cases, surgical treatment is required, such as laparoscopic cystectomy, hysteroscopic surgery, etc.

5. Bad living habits such as long-term stress and irregular diet may indirectly cause uterine cysts. Improving lifestyle, such as keeping a good mood, eating a balanced diet, and consuming more foods rich in vitamins and minerals, such as green leafy vegetables and nuts, can help prevent the formation of cysts.

The treatment of uterine cysts requires an individualized plan based on the cause and symptoms. Regular gynecological examinations are the key to early detection and prevention, and timely medical treatment can effectively prevent the disease from worsening.
