On the mainland,
There are about 446 million female friends over the age of 30.
About 20% of them have had uterine fibroids,
Female friends aged 30 to 50,
It is also the main target of its bullying.[1]
Maybe
You have a fibroid in your stomach growing quietly.
The womb, the little home that conceives the baby,
It always touches a woman's heart.
The uterine wall has three layers from the inside to the outside:
Intimal layer, muscle layer, serous layer,
Fibroids are evil, and they refuse to let go of any layer.
(GIF: Fibroids jumping between three layers)
In fact
Uterine fibroids are the most common benign tumors,
Round look, still Zhou Zheng,
They are very different in size from each other.
The small ones resemble grains of rice, and the large ones resemble term fetuses.
Most of them are docile and harmless,
But occasionally there is also the existence of "rebellion",
Harmful to physical health.
The fibroid family has three sisters,
living in different parts of the womb,
According to the probability of the onset of the disease, give them the words of "seniority ranking":
The eldest sister, inter-wall fibroids, accounting for 60% to 70%;
Second sister, subserous fibroids, accounting for 20%;
Little sister, submucosal fibroids, accounting for 10% to 15%,
The three sisters each have their own tempers and emotional discord,
Each dominates a house, and the old and dead do not interact with each other.
Eldest sister, inter-wall fibroids
(GIF: Intermuscular fibroids from small to large)
It can be an only child or a group of sisters,
More often than a hundred [2].
When it was first born, it was small in size and small in courage.
Do not dare to influence the visit of the great aunt,
I had to sneak up on you,
So that you don't feel it exists,
But the great thing is that it protrudes inward,
Make a big bag,
The endometrium is easily destroyed,
The result is that the big aunt has more bleeding,
When she becomes larger and occupies the space inside the womb,
will affect the development of the fertilized egg,
Conditions that cause infertility.
Second sister, subserosal fibroids
Her development rate can be much faster than that of the eldest sister,
When she was found by the powerful doctor, she was already a big girl.
And he's a restless Lord,
She was born under the uterine serous membrane,
Always want to see the outside "world prosperity",
So it will grow outward against the serous membrane of the uterus,
In the end, only one peduncle is left to connect to the uterine wall[3],
Moving with the movement of the master,
So, girls, when you exercise, appear:
Acute abdominal pain, urinary frequency and urgency,
See a doctor in time.
But the second sister lives outside the womb,
It generally does not affect conception.
Little sister, submucosal fibroids
The little sister's submucosal fibroids are also very personal,
I want to go into the womb and look at it,
So she's going to grow into the uterine cavity,
But when she grows up, she will deform her uterus.[4],
Affects menstruation and conception.
1. The amount of bleeding of the great aunt has increased in recent times,
And after a week, the great aunt still did not leave,
The tip may be that there are uterine fibroids in the stomach.
2. Obviously a girl who does not like to drink too much water,
But recently began to urinate frequently,
Also note that it may be that the uterine fibroids have grown and pressed into the bladder,
At this time, it is time to go to the hospital for examination.
Uterine fibroids are mostly benign,
But health is no small matter,
The three sisters should still be cautious and wary.
Especially middle-aged female friends should be checked regularly,
They prefer
People between the ages of 30 and 50 who are prone to abnormally elevated estrogen [5],
Young girls can't take it lightly,
To control the weight,
Too fat estrogen can also be abnormally elevated.
Sisters are advised to:
Go to the hospital once a year to do B ultrasound,
Don't be afraid to find the three sisters of uterine fibroids,
If it is a small head of uterine fibroids,
Go to the hospital every 1 month for a review,
She doesn't grow tall or grows slowly,
You can review it after 3 to 6 months.
If it is found that she has stopped growing,
and smaller than 5 cm,
Then leave her alone.
If the fibroids grow faster,
Over 5 cm in size,
It is also accompanied by severe abdominal pain, miscarriage, excessive menstrual bleeding, etc.,
It is necessary to see a doctor in time for treatment!
