What is the definition of uterine hypertrophy?

Patient's question:

I got married last year. Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried about it affecting my fertility, and I'm also extremely sensitive to cold and coldness. What is the definition of uterine hyperplasia?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, uterine hypertrophy refers to a disease characterized by the uniform reduction of the uterus with a muscular layer thickness of less than 2.5 cm, accompanied by varying degrees of uterine bleeding. The basic pathological changes of uterine hypertrophy are alterations in smooth muscle cells and blood vessel walls within the uterine muscle layer. The causes leading to this condition include: chronic incomplete uterine involution in multiparous individuals, ovarian dysfunction, inflammation, pelvic congestion, and arteriosclerosis of the uterine muscle layer. It is recommended that if you have such a disease, seek timely treatment. Since the causes of the disease are multifaceted, some preventive measures can be taken to reduce the likelihood of recurrence, such as practicing effective family planning, preventing postpartum infections, and administering uterine contraction drugs promptly for those with poor postpartum uterine contraction.
