There are many causes of uterine enlargement, including pregnancy, uterine fibroids, adenomyosis, uterine hypertrophy and other physiological causes, as well as endometrial cancer, uterine sarcoma, ovarian tumor and other pathological causes. For unknown uterine enlargement, it is necessary to seek medical attention in order to detect and treat the underlying disease early. There are many reasons for uterine enlargement, and the following are some common reasons: 1. Physiological causes: Pregnancy: After pregnancy, the uterus will gradually enlarge to accommodate the fetus and placenta. Uterine fibroids: Uterine fibroids are benign tumors formed by proliferation of uterine smooth muscle cells, which can lead to uterine volume increase. Adenomyosis: Endometrial glands and stroma invade the myometrium, which can cause uterine uniformity to increase. Uterine hypertrophy: The elastic fiber tissue in the uterine myometrium of polygamous women proliferates between smooth muscles and around blood vessels, resulting in uterine hypertrophy. 2. Pathological causes: endometrial cancer: endometrial cancer, can increase the volume of the uterus, accompanied by vaginal bleeding, discharge and other symptoms. Uterine sarcoma: uterine smooth muscle tissue malignant transformation, the formation of sarcoma, can lead to uterine volume increase. Ovarian tumor: Ovarian tumors can compress the uterus when they are large, resulting in increased uterine volume. Other: cervical cancer, pelvic inflammatory disease, etc. can also cause increased uterine volume. It should be noted that increased uterine volume may be a manifestation of a variety of diseases, requiring further detailed examination and diagnosis to determine the specific cause. For unexplained uterine enlargement, seek medical attention to detect and treat the underlying disease early. In addition, for women with fertility needs, especially young women, special attention should be paid to the cause of uterine enlargement. Certain diseases may affect fertility, leading to infertility or miscarriage. Therefore, before or during pregnancy, a comprehensive gynecological examination, including uterine ultrasound, should be performed to ensure the health of the uterus. If an enlarged uterus has been diagnosed, it should be actively coordinated with the doctor's treatment plan. Treatment may include medical treatment, surgical treatment or other comprehensive treatment measures, depending on the cause and severity of the condition. In short, the increase in uterine volume may be physiological or pathological, and needs to be analyzed and treated according to the specific situation. Timely medical treatment, clear diagnosis and appropriate treatment measures are essential to protect women's reproductive health.
