Causes of multiple uterine fibroids

Many female friends may not know the cause of uterine fibroids, a disease that causes multiple uterine fibroids, so they are unable to eliminate the occurrence of this disease in time. Generally speaking, if we want to prevent a disease like uterine fibroids in our lives, we need to know its causes. I hope that female friends can learn about the causes of uterine fibroids introduced in this article.

Multiple uterine fibroids are the most common benign tumors of the female reproductive system, mostly occurring between the ages of 35 and 50. Uterine fibroids are often multiple, and the above different types of fibroids can occur simultaneously in the same uterus, which is called multiple uterine fibroids.

Causes

1. Bad eating habits

Scientific research shows that women who mainly eat meat have a higher risk of developing uterine fibroids. This is because vitamins can reduce the sensitivity of the uterine muscle layer to estrogen and have a regulatory effect on the neuroendocrine system, especially vitamin C. Eating less fried meat, avoiding hangovers, and not staying up late can reduce the incidence of uterine fibroids accordingly.

2. Frequent use of oral contraceptives

The main ingredients of contraceptive pills are estrogen and progesterone[1]. Based on clinical observations, the higher the estrogen content in contraceptives, the greater the adverse reactions, which will not only stimulate uterine fibroids, but also lead to the risk of thrombosis in women. Therefore, the contraceptive pill has been adjusting the estrogen content from generation to generation, lowering the estrogen content. The third generation of contraceptives is the safest and rarely causes excessive adverse reactions. However, if contraceptives are taken frequently in a short period of time, especially emergency contraceptives, the side effects of the drugs will still exist, and women will have a relatively higher chance of developing uterine fibroids.

3. Depression

Depression is a very important factor leading to uterine fibroids, especially for modern women who face the dual mental pressure of work and family and are prone to depression. If you reach menopause, it is more likely to increase estrogen secretion, eventually leading to the occurrence of uterine fibroids. Avoid mental stress. Menopause can induce uterine fibroids. Female friends need to be open-minded. When feeling depressed, they can participate in various social activities, travel, etc. to divert their attention.

4. Sexual dysfunction

Long-term sexual dysfunction can easily lead to hormonal disorders, causing chronic pelvic congestion and inducing uterine fibroids.

5. Early menopause in women without children

A woman has a limited number of primordial follicles in her lifetime, and ovulation occurs only once every 30 years. During pregnancy and lactation, due to the action of hormones, the ovaries stop ovulating and do not resume until the 4th to 6th month of lactation. As a result, the ovaries delay ovulation by a certain number of times, and women with a history of childbearing will enter menopause later. However, childless women cannot get timely and effective protection from progesterone and are prone to hormone-dependent diseases, uterine fibroids being one of them.

Through this article’s introduction to the causes of multiple uterine fibroids, I hope you can prevent the occurrence of this disease in your life. For a disease like multiple uterine fibroids, we should pay attention to our sex life in life and maintain an optimistic attitude to get rid of the harm of this disease.
