What causes endometrial cancer? These aspects need attention

Endometrial cancer is a disease that occurs during the monthly exfoliation and repair process of the endometrium. The reason is that long-term estrogen stimulation will stimulate endometrial hyperplasia, and progesterone in the body or in vitro progesterone has no sufficient antagonistic effect. The continuous hyperplasia process can cause lesions. The degree of lesions may be simple hyperplasia or complex hyperplasia, or even cancer.

Uterine cancer is also called uterine body cancer or endometrial cancer. It mainly occurs in the uterus and is different from cervical cancer. If it is not treated in time, it will cause great harm to the patient. There are many reasons for this disease in life. If you want to prevent the occurrence of this disease, you must first understand the cause of the disease. So, what causes endometrial cancer?
Endometrial cancer type 1 is the most common type of endometrial cancer in clinical practice. This type of endometrial cancer has a better prognosis. Its main cause is the continuous stimulation of the endometrium by estrogen. For example, some people have irregular menstruation and there is a disease called polycystic ovary syndrome, which may cause the endometrium to be continuously stimulated by estrogen and develop this tumor. The menstruation of a normal person is actually under the cyclical alternation of estrogen and progesterone, so it can produce a normal cycle, but some people do not have this normal cycle and are continuously stimulated by estrogen. Over time, it may lead to the abnormality of the endometrial cells, and further development will develop into endometrial cancer.
Uterine insufficiency can easily cause sexual dysfunction, irregular menstruation, and frequent uterine bleeding. If the uterus is in a state of continuous proliferation, some bacterial infections will occur, leading to endometrial hyperplasia. If it is not treated for a long time and is often stimulated, endometrial cancer will occur.
Many women do not control their diet, so there are many obese people in recent years. In fact, if women are too obese, it will increase the burden of storing estrogen in the body. Over time, some carcinogenic factors will appear in the endometrium, leading to the occurrence of endometrial cancer or other malignant tumors.
Some women, during menopause or after childbirth, have poor uterine recovery, or due to problems with uterine development, they develop polycystic ovary syndrome. Although this is a common gynecological disease, if it is not taken seriously and develops seriously, it will cause endometrial shedding and cause endometrial cancer. Women who have never given birth have a 100% increased risk of endometrial cancer compared to those who have given birth to a child, especially female infertility caused by anovulation. Due to the continuous effect of estrogen and the lack of progesterone to counteract and regulate, the chances of endometrial hyperplasia and cancer can be increased.
