Endometrial cancer is a serious disease that occurs from time to time in our daily lives. We must pay attention to our reasonable lifestyle habits and effectively prevent it from multiple aspects.
Endometrial cancer hazards
1. Endometriosis dysmenorrhea: The clinical feature of endometriosis is progressive dysmenorrhea, which is a common and prominent feature, mostly secondary. It starts from the occurrence of endometriosis, and patients complain that there was no pain during previous menstrual cycles. From a certain period, dysmenorrhea can occur before, during, and after menstruation.
2. Dyspareunia: sexual intercourse pain can occur when there are ectopic endometrial nodules in the vaginal vault, concave rectal nodules or adhesions, or ovarian adhesions in the pelvic floor.
3. Infertility: About 50% of patients with endometriosis are accompanied by infertility, and about 30-40% of patients with unexplained infertility suffer from endometriosis. Endometriosis is a condition of infertility, often caused by factors such as pelvic lumps, adhesions, blocked fallopian tubes, underdeveloped follicles, or ovulation disorders. This is the most serious risk of endometrial cancer.
4. Endometriotic irregular menstruation: shortened Menstrual cycle, increased menstruation or prolonged menstruation in patients with endometriosis, indicating that patients with ovarian dysfunction and irregular menstruation can be used as a diagnostic reference, but it is not worth in the identification and diagnosis.
5. Rectal and bladder irritation symptoms: Periodic rectal irritation symptoms with sexual deterioration are rare compared to other gynecological diseases and are the most valuable symptom for diagnosing this disease. The rectum, anus, and external genitalia experience swelling, pain, internal urgency, and increased frequency of bowel movements. As the lesion gradually worsens, the symptoms become more pronounced, and later disappear.
Causes of endometrial cancer
1. Obesity: too much fat will increase the storage of estrogen, and Androstenedione in plasma will become estrone. This increase in free and active estrone may be a carcinogen or pro-cancer factor for endometrial cancer.
2. Diabetes: diabetes patients or those with abnormal glucose tolerance have an increased risk of endometrial cancer by 2. Eight times.
3. Hypertension: There are many people with endometrial cancer and hypertension. Obesity, diabetes and hypertension coexist in patients with endometrial cancer, which is called endometrium triad or endometrial cancer syndrome. The three may be related to a high-fat diet, which is directly related to endometrial cancer.
