Can a thick endometrium cause cancer?

The main incidence of endometrial cancer is menopausal or postmenopausal women, which is closely related to their own lifestyle habits and the incidence rate is also different. At present, many women are open and do not pay attention to healthy sex life, or have poor diet adjustment, which will lead to thickening of the endometrium. Once the disease occurs, it will become endometrial cancer.

Endometrial hyperplasia is neither light nor severe, and may even turn into cancer in severe cases, so it is called a precancerous lesion, but endometrial thickening is reversible, or remains in a persistent benign state, and only a few people will turn into cancer. Next, let's introduce whether endometrial thickness can cause cancer.

1. Endometrial hyperplasia is generally divided into the following types: simple hyperplasia, complex hyperplasia and atypical hyperplasia. According to the severity of the disease, it can also be divided into three levels: mild, moderate and severe. Adolescent girls or menopausal women do not ovulate, which causes the endometrium to lack cyclical secretory transformation for a long time, leading to endometrial hyperplasia.

2. Endometrial hyperplasia is mainly manifested as abnormal menstruation, often manifested as irregular vaginal bleeding, scanty menstruation, and long-term heavy bleeding after a period of amenorrhea. For some young women, most of them suffer from polycystic ovary syndrome, which can lead to long-term anovulation and decreased fertility, which has a great impact on the family.

3. Once a patient finds out that she has endometrial hyperplasia, she must be diagnosed as soon as possible to find out the cause. If accompanied by polycystic ovary and other endocrine dysfunction, targeted treatment should be carried out. Young women have a lower tendency to cancer, so drug treatment should be carried out first. For older women, the cancer rate is higher, so hysterectomy is recommended to ensure health. Women must have regular gynecological examinations every year to check for hidden dangers in a timely manner.

Patients are advised to eat more foods that replenish qi and blood, and avoid cold, spicy, and greasy foods. If there is deficiency of qi and blood, nutrition should be increased at ordinary times. In addition, do not have sex after surgery, and do not wear tight clothes. Pay attention to keeping warm in winter. They can exercise appropriately to give themselves a healthy body.
