Patient's question:
My sister got married last year. She has been experiencing lower abdominal pain and cramps, especially on her period. She is very worried about it affecting her fertility, and she also has an extreme fear of cold.Could you please tell me what methods are available for treating endometrial hyperplasia?
Doctor's answer:
Endometrial hyperplasia is generally related to the long-term stimulation of the endometrium by estrogen secreted by the ovaries, and it usually occurs without menopause. Endometrial hyperplasia is classified into simple, complex, and atypical hyperplasia. Atypical hyperplasia is often associated with the development of endometrial cancer. For endometrial hyperplasia during or after menopause, diagnostic dilation and curettage (D&C) is recommended, with the scraped endometrial tissue sent for pathological examination. There are many treatment options in obstetrics and gynecology, but the specific treatment depends on the patient's symptoms. Therefore, it is crucial to diagnose the condition as soon as possible to provide targeted treatment.
