Five common sense about uterine health that women must know

The uterus is a very important part of a woman. How should we take care of it in daily life? Let's educate everyone and tell you some common sense of daily health care! If you don't know it yet, come and take a look!

1. Active contraception

According to a survey, if a woman has had more than three abortions, the possibility of uterine disease and harm increases significantly.

If artificial abortions are repeated multiple times, it can easily cause uterine infection, cervical or uterine adhesions, leading to secondary infertility.

Reminder: Compared with more than a decade ago, uterine fibroids are increasingly prevalent in middle-aged women in their thirties and forties, especially those who are childless, have disordered sexual life, and are depressed. According to gynecological experts, the specific cause of uterine fibroids is not yet very clear, but studies have shown that excessive hormone secretion is the most common cause of uterine fibroids, and these three behavioral patterns of women are the culprits that cause endocrine disorders and excessive hormone secretion.

2. Don’t indulge in promiscuity

When one has an unrestrained sexual life, especially having sexual relations with multiple men, the uterus is the first victim. If sexual intercourse is unclean, pathogens can enter the uterine cavity through the vagina and cause endometrial infection.

3. Prevent postpartum uterine prolapse

If you do not pay attention to rest after giving birth, and often squat to work or do heavy work, the abdominal pressure will increase, and the uterus will shift downward along the vagina from its normal position.

4. Reduce high-fat foods

High-fat foods promote the production and release of certain hormones, and the formation of uterine fibroids is related to large amounts of estrogen stimulation. Adhere to a low-fat diet, drink plenty of water, and take in necessary nutrients according to the latest 4 1 pyramid dietary structure. Avoid spicy food, alcohol, frozen food, etc.

5. Pay attention to whether menstruation and leucorrhea are normal

If you find that your vaginal discharge increases or your menstrual bleeding is abnormal, you should seek medical attention immediately and have relevant examinations to ensure early detection and early treatment.

Abnormal leucorrhea may indicate these cervical diseases

First of all, increased vaginal discharge is a common symptom of cervicitis and cervical erosion.

Increased vaginal discharge is the most common and sometimes the only symptom of cervicitis. Increased and turbid leucorrhea with pus or blood, as well as urination symptoms such as frequent urination and urgency are typical symptoms of cervicitis and cervical erosion.

Due to different degrees of inflammatory stimulation, the columnar epithelium of the cervical mucosa grows slowly, the epithelium is flat and the surface is smooth, which is simple erosion; the columnar epithelium grows quickly and forms glandular hyperplasia, which is adenoid erosion. If the glands are dilated, it may be a follicular erosion, accompanied by stromal hyperplasia, forming small protrusions, which are unevenly covered with columnar epithelium, forming papillary erosions. The above types can often occur in combination. Cervical erosion is one of the most common gynecological diseases.

The main symptom of cervical erosion is increased vaginal discharge, which is often purulent. There may be pain in the lower abdomen and lumbosacral area and symptoms of bladder irritation; patients with more severe erosion may have varying degrees of pale bloody secretions, typically bloody secretions after sexual intercourse and thick, purulent secretions in the cervix, which are not conducive to the passage of sperm and cause infertility.

Secondly, leucorrhea bleeding may be a sign of cervical cancer.

Leucorrhea is a normal vaginal discharge in women. Normal leucorrhea is an odorless, slightly acidic viscous substance. It has the function of moistening the vagina and excreting waste. In many cases, bloody leucorrhea may be a warning to you from cervical cancer.

Bloody vaginal discharge may be caused by uterine cancer. If there is blood in the leucorrhea, you should be alert to the possibility of malignant tumors such as cervical cancer and endometrial cancer. However, benign lesions such as cervical polyps, cervical erosion, submucosal myoma, dysfunctional uterine bleeding, urethral caruncle, senile vaginitis, etc. can also cause bloody leucorrhea, and a small amount of blood caused by intrauterine contraceptive device.
