What is adenomyosis?

As a common gynecological disease, although adenomyosis is a benign cancer, its impact on patients cannot be underestimated. If not treated in time, malignant lesions may also occur, which is very unfavorable for patients. So what is adenomyosis?

Adenomyosis is a benign disease caused by the invasion of the endometrium into the myometrium. If it is not treated in time, it may cause lesions and even lead to infertility. When doctors generally perform abdominal examinations, they will find that the uterus is uniformly enlarged, or there are localized nodules that are hard and painful when pressed. B-ultrasound can generally make a diagnosis. The causes of the disease may include the following aspects:

1. Physiological factors. As they age, some women begin to experience ovarian dysfunction and ovarian hypofunction, which can lead to abnormal hormone secretion in women, causing excessive endometrial hyperplasia and adenomyosis.

2. Reproductive organ abnormalities. Due to some reasons, the female reproductive organs may be blocked by adhesions, which can prevent menstrual blood from flowing out or cause it to flow out unsmoothly, causing the shed endometrial tissue to grow inside the uterus, causing adenomyosis.

3. Caused by surgery. Women are prone to damage normal endometrial tissue after abortion or delivery, which can also cause adenomyosis.

4. Unreasonable life factors. Irregular lifestyle, unreasonable diet, excessive stress, emotional depression, etc. can easily cause changes in the body environment and secretion imbalance, which may also cause adenomyosis.

There are many causes of adenomyosis, which are related to one's own elements and to the outside world. Female friends must be vigilant and seek medical treatment in time to prevent lesions.
