What are the causes of uterine hypertrophy?

Patient's question:

These past few days, I don't know why there has been an increase in leukorrhea, lower abdominal pain, and also accompanied by back pain. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, the doctor said it was due to uterine hypertrophy. Please ask why the uterus becomes hypertrophic.

Doctor's answer:

The main causes of cervical hypertrophy are:
(1) Long-term effects of chronic inflammation, which cause congestion and edema of the cervix, leading to fibrosis of cervical glands and stroma, resulting in varying degrees of cervical hypertrophy.
(2) Mucus retention may occur in the deep part of the cervical glands, forming cysts of varying sizes, causing the cervix to become hypertrophic.
Advice:
If the patient has no symptoms, and the causes of cervical hypertrophy are ruled out, treatment may not be necessary!
There are many treatments for uterine hypertrophy, but since the symptoms vary among patients, the diagnostic methods used will also differ. Therefore, patients need to undergo timely and thorough examination and diagnosis to receive symptomatic treatment.
