What are the effects of microwave treatment of gynecological inflammation?

In recent years, gynecological inflammation has been increasing, causing many women to suffer. Currently, many medical institutions have adopted microwave treatment for gynecological inflammation. So what is the effect of microwave treatment and what are its functions and effects? Let’s watch it together!

(1) Microwave thermal therapy is a process in which microwaves are irradiated onto the diseased area. The diseased tissue absorbs the microwave energy and generates heat itself. Therefore, the diseased tissue heats up faster than other hot compresses, and the temperature is evenly distributed.

(2) Microwaves have the characteristic of selective heating: the dielectric constants of various tissues in the human body are different, so the ability of various tissues to absorb microwaves is also different. Tissues with strong microwave absorption capabilities heat up quickly, while tissues with weak microwave absorption capabilities heat up slowly. Diseased tissue often absorbs microwaves stronger than normal tissue and heats up faster, thus achieving the purpose of selective treatment. Other heat therapy methods do not have this feature.

(3) Microwave thermal therapy can confirm the location of the lesion, while other hot compress treatments cannot: If the lesion is inflamed, the microvessels in the lesion will become narrower due to the compression of the inflamed tissue, resulting in poor blood circulation. When the lesion is irradiated with microwaves, it is inevitable that the healthy tissue adjacent to the lesion will be irradiated at the same time, that is, the lesion and healthy tissues are heated by microwaves at the same time. For healthy tissues, most of the heat generated by absorbing microwaves is carried away by the circulating blood and dissipated out of the body through the skin; for diseased tissues, the temperature rises sharply due to poor blood circulation. When the temperature of local diseased tissue rises to 38℃-39℃, the affected area will feel pain. The painful area is the lesion area, thus accurately determining the location of the lesion. This feature is of great benefit in improving the efficacy and shortening the treatment course.

Special mention should be made of microwave treatment for uterine fibroids. Under the guidance of B-ultrasound, a microwave probe is inserted into the tumor for coagulation therapy, namely microwave thermal coagulation ablation, which is an innovation in the treatment of uterine fibroids. It is suitable for single uterine fibroids with a diameter less than 5 cm. Its characteristic is that high temperature destroys the cell nucleus and causes protein coagulation, and DNA and RNA synthesis are inhibited, leading to cell death.

This internal heating causes the tissue to coagulate simultaneously from the inside out, with a uniform heating area, good hemostasis effect, and no charring, providing a minimally invasive, safe, and efficient treatment approach. And it can preserve uterine functions intact, such as normal menstruation, pregnancy and childbirth. It reduces surgical pain and improves the quality of life.

Through the editor’s sharing above, you have a comprehensive understanding of microwave therapy. If you find that you have gynecological inflammation in your future life, you might as well use microwave therapy!
