Fibrous-fibrous polyps of the endometrium

Under the medical term "glandular fibrous polyps of the endometrium" is usually understood as a small, limited proliferation of the mucous wall of the uterus.

Thus, the probability of polyp formation increases dramatically when progesterone production decreases, along with an increase in the synthesis of estrogen. As a result, a focus of inflammation in the endometrium is formed, which after passing through the menstruation is not rejected, but only increases in size.
  2. Violation of the function of the adrenal gland can also lead to the development of pathology. This is explained by the fact that part of the hormones are synthesized directly by this gland.
  3. Often the disease is the result of metabolic disturbances in the body. The risk of developing pathology is increased in women with overweight, diabetes, hypertension.
  4. Long-term use of intrauterine contraceptive means also often leads to the formation of polyps.
  5. The presence of spontaneous miscarriages in the past, can sometimes be a prerequisite for the development of the disease.
