What is the cause of endometrial polyps? Unmarried and not having sex

Endometrial polyps may be related to abnormal hormone levels, chronic inflammation, or uterine environmental disturbances, and have no direct correlation with marital status or sexual life. If you find any related problems, you should seek medical attention in time.

Endometrial polyps are the result of abnormal proliferation of the endometrium, just like a plant abnormally "growing a small piece" in a suitable environment. It is usually caused by excessive estrogen stimulation, and may also be related to changes in immune function or chronic intrauterine inflammation. Even if you are unmarried and have no sexual life, physiological hormone fluctuations and metabolic regulation may also cause this problem.

Some unmarried women may discover the presence of polyps due to irregular menstruation, increased menstrual flow, or unexplained lower abdominal discomfort. In addition, if the menstrual cycle is too disordered or you always feel tired during menstruation, you should also pay attention to the possibility of endometrial lesions. Although polyps are generally benign, if they are not treated in time, they may cause changes in the intrauterine environment, affect future fertility, or cause long-term discomfort.

It is important to maintain a regular schedule and a balanced diet, such as consuming more foods rich in vitamins, not being picky eaters, and eating a moderate amount of high-fat diet to reduce the risk of endocrine disorders. If you experience menstrual abnormalities, significantly increased menstrual flow, or unexplained abdominal pain, you should go to the gynecology department for a B-ultrasound examination in time to make a clear diagnosis and develop a follow-up treatment plan.
