Patient's question:
I am 50 years old and have had endometrial hyperplasia. I had two D&C procedures, but it's still not clean. After taking Letrozole, I stopped. Will it develop into cancer in the future? Is endometrial hyperplasia a precursor to cancer?Doctor's answer:
Endometrial hyperplasia has a certain tendency to resist carcinogenesis, so it is classified as a precancerous lesion. However, based on long-term careful observation, the majority of endometrial hyperplasia is a reversible inflammation or remains in a persistent benign state. Only a very small number of cases may develop into cancer after a long interval. It is recommended to seek medical treatment and undergo regular follow-up examinations to ensure early diagnosis and treatment. For patients, if the condition of endometrial hyperplasia is severe, timely symptomatic treatment and appropriate medication are necessary. Otherwise, it may lead to a recurrence of endometrial hyperplasia. Additionally, patients should pay attention to their diet and psychological care. The answers to the above questions can assist everyone.
