What is the cause of endometrial thickness?

The main reason for the thickening of the uterine wall is the excessive secretion of estrogen caused by ovarian dysfunction. For example, obesity, endometrial hyperplasia, endocrine tumors, etc. On the one hand, the thickness of the uterine wall is related to endocrine imbalance, and the ovulation period will also be affected. When the thickness of the endometrium exceeds the normal range, it affects women's pregnancy.

Thickening of the uterine wall may be caused by an imbalance of male hormones. Excessive amounts of certain male hormones may lead to thickening of the uterine wall. Pathological endometrial thickening is often related to inflammation and endocrine imbalance.

Implementation suggestions:

Medical treatment should be sought immediately after diagnosis. Deep anti-infection should be done at the treatment level. If necessary, you can try the Chinese herbal medicine Fu Yan Qu. The uterine wall is the mucous membrane covering the uterus. It is one of the most differentiated tissues in the body. The thickness of the normal uterine wall changes continuously with the menstrual cycle and is not fixed. During the treatment period, try to avoid eating foods with high estrogen content, such as beans. Pay attention to cleanliness and hygiene. Avoid sex in daily life as much as possible.

Nowadays, gynecological diseases are receiving more and more attention from people. Gynecological diseases bring great pain to women, and many women are also troubled by it. Thick endometrium is an abnormal symptom of women. So, what is endometrial thickening? What are the symptoms of endometrial thickening? What are the treatments for endometrial thickening? Let’s take a look.

What is the thickness of the inner membrane?

The uterine wall has a period of proliferation every month: it starts around the 5th day of the menstrual cycle and lasts for 7-10 days. At this time, the estrogen level in the blood gradually rises, the dermis of the uterine wall begins to repair, the uterine wall gradually thickens, and the blood vessels and uterine gland ducts also grow and develop, but the uterine wall is still too thin at this time; it starts around the 15th day after menstruation, and the estrogen secreted by the uterus after ovulation causes the already thickened uterine wall to thicken again, the gland ducts further expand and bend, and secrete mucus. At this time, the endometrium becomes increasingly thicker and softer, storing the necessary secretions, ready to implant the embryo formed by the combination of sperm and egg at any time.

The above is the physiological thickening of the uterine wall, which is normal. However, if a woman's ovarian hormone secretion is disordered, it is easy to cause abnormal thickening of the endometrium, also known as uterine wall hyperplasia.

If a woman's hypothalamus-pituitary gland, pituitary gland, or uterine-ovarian axis is out of balance, or if she suffers from polycystic ovary syndrome and other diseases, the uterine wall may be continuously affected by estrogen for a long time, resulting in anovulation. In that case, the uterine wall is continuously affected by estrogen for a long time, without estrogen resistance and lack of regular metabolic changes, and will be in a state of hyperplasia for a long time, leading to abnormal endometrial hyperplasia.

The vast majority of patients with endometrial hyperplasia are in menopause or puberty, and obese women are also more likely to have endometrial thickening. The clinical symptoms are irregular and excessive abnormal uterine bleeding. Patients may experience continuous bleeding after long-term amenorrhea. Clinically, it may be suspected of miscarriage. It may also be manifested as a shortened cycle time, prolonged menstruation, and bleeding time of up to 1 month.
