What is the cause of female uterine enlargement?

Patient's question:

What is the cause of uterine hypertrophy in women?

Doctor's answer:

Cervical hyperplasia is a type of chronic cervical inflammation. It is caused by inflammatory changes in the cervical mucosa due to pathogen infection. The pathogens that can cause cervical hyperplasia include mycoplasma, chlamydia, bacteria, and viruses. It is recommended that you visit the gynecology department of a hospital for a cervical secretion examination. Based on the examination results, symptomatic treatment should be administered. If necessary, a cervical TCT test can be performed to rule out early cervical cancer.
Simple cervical hyperplasia does not affect pregnancy, but severe cervical inflammation can lead to endometritis, tubo-ovarian inflammation, tubal adhesion, and obstruction, resulting in infertility.
After pregnancy, hormonal changes may make it difficult to determine whether cervical hyperplasia still exists. Severe cervical hyperplasia can affect childbirth. If a pregnant woman's platelet count continues to decline during pregnancy, treatment should be initiated. If it remains at a certain level, observation can be conducted.
