Uterine intramural nodules

The female uterus is a very important organ for women. If a woman has nodules in her uterus due to frequent miscarriage, her pregnancy function will be seriously damaged, and she will feel abdominal pain during her menstruation. To solve this problem of the uterus, it must be treated in time, because the possibility of turning into uterine fibroids is very high. So what does the nodule between the uterine muscle wall mean?

Uterine muscle wall nodules are considered to be intramural uterine myomas. Intramural uterine fibroids are a type of uterine fibroids. The main feature of uterine fibroids is that they grow entirely within the myometrium and are the most common type of uterine fibroids clinically. Generally, when the size of the intramural fibroids of the uterus is relatively small, there are no obvious clinical symptoms and they can usually only be seen during routine gynecological and B-ultrasound examinations. If the size of the intramural fibroids is relatively large, it can cause the uterine cavity to enlarge, the endometrial area to increase, and the endometrial gland secretion to increase, which can lead to an increase in leucorrhea and also an increase in menstrual volume.

Generally, if the size of the intramural fibroid is relatively small, within 5 cm, conservative treatment can be considered first, and symptomatic treatment can be carried out with blood-activating and blood-stasis-removing drugs, such as Guizhi Fuling Capsule, Gongliuning and other blood-activating and blood-stasis-removing drugs for treatment, and regular color ultrasound examinations should be performed. If the size of the intramural fibroid exceeds 5cm and drug treatment is relatively ineffective, surgical treatment is required.

Uterine fibroids are the most common benign tumors in the female reproductive organs and one of the most common tumors in the human body. They are also called fibroids and uterine fibroids. Since uterine fibroids are mainly formed by the proliferation of uterine smooth muscle cells, with a small amount of fibrous connective tissue existing as a supporting tissue, it is more accurate to call them uterine leiomyomas. Referred to as uterine fibroids.

The cause of uterine fibroids is still not very clear, and may involve a more complex interaction between normal muscle layer cell mutations, sex hormones and local growth factors.

A large number of clinical observations and experimental results indicate that uterine fibroids are a hormone-dependent tumor. Estrogen is the main factor that promotes the growth of fibroids. Some scholars also believe that growth hormone (GH) is also related to the growth of fibroids. GH can cooperate with estrogen to promote mitosis and promote the growth of fibroids. It is speculated that human placental lactogen (HPL) can also cooperate with estrogen to promote mitosis. It is believed that the accelerated growth of uterine fibroids during pregnancy is related to the high hormone environment during pregnancy, and HPL may also play a role.

In addition, ovarian function and hormone metabolism are controlled and regulated by higher nerve centers, so the activity of nerve centers may also play an important role in the occurrence of fibroids. Uterine fibroids are more common in women of childbearing age, widows, and those with disharmonious sexual lives. Chronic pelvic congestion caused by long-term sexual dysfunction may also be one of the causes of uterine fibroids.

In short, the occurrence and development of uterine fibroids may be the result of the combined action of multiple factors.
