Doctors around the world regret that cervical polyps can occur in women of any age, both adolescents and older women. However, each age has one distinctive feature that is characteristic of all women, regardless of age, having polyps in the uterus. Such a feature is a violation of the hormonal background, resulting in excessive growth of the uterus and its mucous membrane.
The very definition of uterine polyps is formulated as follows: Polyps are a small proliferation of the mucous membrane in the uterus, which looks like a knot and is located on the leg. It is worth noting that most often polyps in the uterus are formed in the areas of the bottom and corners, and take a finger-shaped and pear-shaped. But in general, polyps in the uterus are usually found in adulthood and old age, both in the form of single and multiple formations.
The main cause of polyps is a violation of the general hormonal background of the body, which is accompanied by chronic inflammatory diseases of the female genital organs, as well as a greater number of abrasions and injuries. Scientists have proven that it is hormonal changes in the body of girls and women that contribute to the formation of polyps in the uterus, and it is quite difficult to treat such a disease.
Experts distinguish between normal and pathological changes in the mucous membrane of the uterine cavity during the formation of polyps. The onset and course of the disease largely depends on the state of the nervous and endocrine system in a woman, as well as many other organs that are dependent on these systems. But the violation between the connections begins in connection with the problems of the hypothalamus - an area in the brain that consists of neurosecretory cells that are able to transmit and respond to nervous excitation, as well as secrete secrets or neurohormones due to changes in the environment.
The main signs of uterine polyps.
One of the most frequent manifestations of polyps in the uterus is considered to be irregularities in the menstrual cycle in the form of frequent bleeding, which mainly manifests itself in the polyp region that is being born. As a result of the constant increase in the size of the polyp, frequent contractions of the uterus begin, in connection with which the opening of its opening increases, and the polyp begins to touch the inside of the vagina. It is at the time of the birth and development of the polyp that the girl feels pains in the abdomen and genital organs of a cramping nature. In addition, frequent discharge appears, which is accompanied by a large amount of blood.
Treatment of uterine polyps.
Polyps in the uterus, the treatment of which occurs using special procedures, begin to interfere with the girl’s quiet life. A woman begins to feel constant pain and dizziness. Problems with the development of polyps in the cervical canal can be easily detected upon examination by a gynecologist. The polyp itself is a soft, pink formation in the cervix. Most often, in order to confirm this diagnosis, it is necessary to undergo a hysteroscopy procedure, during which the uterine mucosa will be examined on a special device. Also, many doctors advise to undergo various ultrasound and radiological examinations.
The very process of treating polyps in the cervix is possible only in connection with the removal of these formations surgically. Single formations are most often removed using the method of unscrewing, with the subsequent process of cauterization. Various multiple and recurrent polyps are removed by doctors by carefully scraping the entire surface of the mucous membrane located on the uterus, as well as removing it from the cervical canal. Thus, surgeons achieve a complete absence of processes on the cervix.
