Endometrial thickening signs of cancer

The uterine wall is a defense of the uterus and also a protective membrane. Although the uterine wall is small, it has a very powerful function and is related to our physical and mental health. Today, let’s take a closer look at the signs and symptoms of endometrial thickening.

Normal endometrial thickening usually occurs around the menstrual period. When the uterus grows and matures in the ovaries, under the action of estrogen secreted by the ovaries, the blood circulation of the uterine wall increases and it gradually thickens, thus providing good conditions for the integration of sperm and egg and the development of test tube embryos. Abnormal endometrial thickening is related to uterine and ovarian hormone disorders, which are generally caused by a large amount of estrogen stimulating the uterine wall. 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.

Abnormal endometrial thickening generally manifests as a change in the physiological cycle. Its clinical symptoms are irregular menstruation, prolonged menstruation and excessive menstrual flow. It is common in adolescent or menopausal women with irregular menstruation and is a cross-endocrine disease. Clinical experiments have shown that most patients can recover after treatment as long as they maintain a sustained good condition.

Little do people know that endometrial thickening may also be multiple hyperplasia or atypical hyperplasia. If a female friend encounters this kind of situation, it needs to be taken seriously. Due to the multipotency of the proliferation, there is a possibility of transformation into endometrial cancer. Atypical hyperplasia also has the opportunity to develop into endometrial cancer.

What are the symptoms of endometrial thickening?

First, the first symptom of endometrial thickening is abnormal uterine bleeding. This type of bleeding is irregular and may occur during non-menstrual periods or after menopause. However, many patients think it is irregular menstruation, but the bleeding is relatively less.

Second, in the early stage, there is a lot of secretion, and later there is bloody leucorrhea, or fluid is discharged from the vagina, causing fever and abdominal pain. At this time, the white blood cell count will also increase, and this kind of white blood cell count happens to be the killer of male sperm, which reduces the patient's chance of pregnancy.

Third, because the swelling of the surrounding tissues will affect the pleasure of the couple's sexual life, there will be pain during sexual intercourse, especially before the menstrual period, which will make the couple feel very numb during sexual intercourse.

In general, endometrial hyperplasia is a long process and also a relatively serious process. Frequent urination, urgency, and menstrual pain are all symptoms of endometrial thickening, so friends should pay more attention to them.
