Endometrial thickening and low menstrual flow has more reasons, may be related to endocrine disorders, polycystic ovary syndrome, incomplete adhesion of the uterine cavity and other diseases, if there is a history of sexual life can not be ruled out as a result of pre-menstrual abortion.
1. Endocrine disorders: endocrine disorders with elevated levels of estrogen in the body can cause abnormal proliferation of the endometrium, and there is not enough progesterone in the body to counteract estrogen during menstruation, which may cause incomplete stripping of the endometrium, thus causing low menstrual flow.
2. Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS): It can be related to heredity and environment, resulting in endocrine abnormality and elevated level of androgen, leading to symptoms such as scanty menstruation and even amenorrhea, etc. At the same time, the endometrium will be thickened under the effect of estrogen, and it can be accompanied by hirsutism, seborrhea, hair loss and other symptoms.
3. Incomplete adhesion of uterine cavity: If there is a history of uterine operation, it may cause damage to the basal layer of the endometrium, thus causing partial adhesion of uterine cavity, and there will be no shedding of endometrium in the adhered portion of the uterine cavity, thus causing menorrhagia, while the unadhered portion of the uterine cavity may develop atypical hyperplasia under the influence of estrogen.
4. Pre-eclampsia: If there is a recent history of sexual intercourse, especially if no contraception is used, then the small amount of vaginal bleeding caused by pre-eclampsia may be mistaken for menstruation, and the thickening of the lining of the uterus may be due to the fertilization of the egg just after it has been deposited.
Endometrial thickening and low menstrual flow may also have other causes, it is recommended to consult the doctor in a timely manner, follow the doctor’s instructions to complete the relevant examinations, to clarify the cause of the problem and then actively treat it, so as to avoid delaying the condition.
