Why does the intima thicken?

Some women will encounter such a problem, that is, the menstrual flow is very heavy. Every month when menstruation comes, a large amount of menstrual blood will stain the pants. In addition, they are particularly prone to fatigue during menstruation, and will be accompanied by dysmenorrhea, etc. At this time, they go to the hospital for a gynecological examination, and the result shows the problem of endometrial thickening. Many people will be puzzled when they encounter this problem, and don’t know what causes it. In fact, the causes of endometrial thickening are the following.

Why does the intima thicken?

When it comes to the question of why the endometrium thickens, although endometrial thickness is not only a common gynecological disease but also can induce many hazards, very few female patients in life really understand its cause, so they don’t know how to deal with this problem. Here are some of the causes of endometrial thickening:

(1) It is closely related to the distribution of hormone receptors

Affected by the distribution of hormone receptors, the endometrium may show polyp-like thickening, which will greatly affect the patient's normal physiological functions and requires timely attention and treatment.

(2) It is closely related to abnormal estrogen secretion

Why does the endometrium thicken? When the hormone glands in a woman's body secrete hormones unevenly, her ovaries will not ovulate. Since the endometrium is affected by estrogen secretion for a long time and there is no transformation in the cyclic secretion period, the endometrium will be in a thickened state for a long time. Abnormal estrogen secretion has become the most common and typical cause of endometrial thickening.

(3) Closely related to endocrine functional tumors

In addition to the two reasons mentioned above, which are closely related to why the endometrium thickens, when women have secretory functional tumors, it will also cause abnormal pituitary gonadotropin function, thereby inducing ovarian granulosa cell tumors, which is also a major cause of endometrial thickening in women.

The above is an introduction to why the endometrium thickens. In fact, there are many reasons that lead to endometrial thickening. I hope that women with related problems can pay attention to it in time and go to a regular hospital for further examination to see what causes the endometrial thickening problem. Then cooperate with the doctor to develop a scientific and effective treatment plan and actively treat it. Only in this way can the harm caused by endometrial thickening to patients be avoided in time. Don’t ever think that endometrial thickening may not seem to have much impact on you. After discovering the disease, try to delay treatment as much as possible. In the end, you may end up with big problems.
