According to statistics, one in ten women in the world suffers from endometriosis, and about 200 million women worldwide are suffering from endometriosis. Relevant research shows that among infertile women, the proportion of women with endometriosis is 25%~50%; and among women with endometriosis, 30%~50% are infertile. Endometriosis is a gynecological disease in which the endometrium, which has the function of growth, grows ectopically in a place other than the uterine covering and the muscular layer of the uterus. Dysmenorrhea is the main manifestation of endometriosis; in order to diagnose whether you have endometriosis, you need to undergo a rigorous and scientific examination. Uterine polyps can cause the following hazards: First, cause infertility Uterine polyps, if left untreated, will gradually grow, blocking the cervical opening. Or polyps just blocked in the cervical opening, can make the cervical opening narrow or cervical canal deformation, thus preventing the normal upward movement of sperm caused by infertility. Second, the treatment is easy to recur Uterine polyps are often associated with chronic inflammation of the cervix. If only polyps are removed, because the chronic inflammation of the cervix has not been eliminated, the pathogenic bacteria are still lurking in the cervical tissues, and there is still a possibility of recurrence. Therefore, after treating uterine polyps, chronic inflammation of the cervix should also be treated to prevent recurrence of polyps. Although it is rare for uterine polyps to become cancerous, the cancer rate is 0.2%~0.4%. For those who are over 45 years old, especially those who suffer from uterine polyps before and after menopause, after surgical resection, the polyps should be sent to pathological examination, and if there are signs of malignant changes, treatment measures should be taken as early as possible. The examination methods for endometriosis are as follows: Laparoscopy Laparoscopy is the most reliable method to diagnose endometriosis, as it observes the patient’s pelvis and determines the location, scope and severity of the lesion. Ultrasound examination The examination can detect the site where endometriosis appears, and can also detect masses that cannot be detected during pelvic examination. Biopsy This is a test for patients with endometriosis in the cervix, vagina, or abdominal wall scars. Cesarean section examination Cesarean section examination can be used for patients who cannot be diagnosed by performing multiple examinations. Tips: Public awareness of endometriosis needs to be popularized and improved. Due to the lack of non-invasive early detection methods for the disease, misdiagnosis, and patients’ shyness about gynecological symptoms, endometriosis is often delayed in diagnosis. Therefore, when you notice symptoms of endometriosis, you should seek medical treatment promptly and not be shy.
