We should not only pay attention to the occurrence of this disease, but also have a comprehensive understanding of it. Let's recognize the disease of Uterine fibroid together.
Risk factors of Uterine fibroid
1、 General factors
1. Age: Uterine fibroid mostly occur in women of childbearing age and women of 30-50 years old. Adolescent women rarely suffer from Uterine fibroid, and Uterine fibroid atrophy or disappear after amenorrhea.
2. Obesity: Obesity will cause metabolic disorder, insufficient periodic regulation of pregnancy hormone, abnormal Menstrual cycle, affect ovulation, and increase the risk of Uterine fibroid.
3. Pregnancy and abortion history: women with a history of pregnancy and childbirth are more likely to suffer from Uterine fibroid than women without a history of pregnancy and childbirth. The age of onset is faster, mainly because the productivity increases the pregnancy hormone in women's bodies.

2、 Hormonal levels
1. High estrogen: Biochemical tests have shown that the estrogen conversion of estradiol in fibroids is significantly lower than that of normal fibroid tissue, and the concentration of estrogen receptors in fibroids is significantly higher than that of surrounding fibroid tissue. Therefore, the high sensitivity of fibroid tissue to estrogen is an important factor in the occurrence of fibroids
2. Pregnancy hormone is high. Pregnancy hormone has the effect of promoting myoma division and stimulating myoma growth. The high level of pregnancy hormone in women is easy to induce Uterine fibroid.
3、 Genetic factors
Cytogenetics shows that 25% -50% of Uterine fibroid have Cytogenetics abnormalities, such as chromosome segment position exchange, chromosome long arm rearrangement or partial deletion. Uterine fibroid is formed by the proliferation of monoclonal Muscle cell, and multiple Uterine fibroid is composed of different clone cells.
