What’s a polyp in the uterus?

Polyps in the uterus may be related to factors such as high estrogen levels and inflammatory stimulation, the exact cause of which is not yet clear. 1. High estrogen level: Uterine polyps are closely related to high estrogen level. Rising estrogen levels can lead to thickening of the uterine lining, and the long-term stimulation of high levels can cause uterine tissue to overgrow, resulting in the formation of polyps, and can cause the formation of polyps to grow further. 2. Inflammatory stimulation: When gynecological inflammation stimulates the reproductive organs for a long time, it will affect the endometrium, and even local skin ulcers may occur, forming keloids and lumps. There are also intrauterine foreign body (such as intrauterine device) stimulation, childbirth, abortion, puerperal infection, intrauterine surgical operation or mechanical stimulation, may cause the occurrence of uterine polyps. In addition, age, obesity, high blood pressure, long-term use of drugs for breast cancer treatment and other factors can increase the risk of developing uterine polyps. If any of these factors are present, you should go to the hospital in time for examination to clarify the cause of the disease and then follow the doctor’s instructions to deal with the treatment.
