Uterine thickening is when the inner tissue of the uterus (endometrium) appears thicker than it should be.
However, the actual diagnosis is made with the pathological report of the tissue sample taken from here.
Uterine thickening is prolonged and excessive. causes large amounts of bleeding. This situation can often be seen during the transition to menopause, when the functioning of the ovaries is disrupted. For this reason, most women neglect to go to the doctor, saying "I will enter menopause, it will pass, I have to be patient..." Even if this is the truth, long-term bleeding will leave the body without blood, so fatigue, irritability, tantrums, sleep and eating disorders tire the body and mind and make treatment processes difficult.
For this reason, even if it is a simple thickening, diagnosis and treatment can be made without waiting for the bleeding to subside. Necessary steps should be taken to prevent it.
Not every thick endometrium seen with ultrasound is hyperplasia-uterine thickening. Ectopic pregnancy, incomplete miscarriage, medications used, not being evaluated at the right time, intrauterine polyps or myomas may cause the illusion of thickening of the uterus. For this reason, intrauterine sampling is first performed to make a correct diagnosis and to understand what causes the thickening and to determine the treatment method. Depending on the pathology result, one of the treatment options ranging from follow-up or medication to hysterectomy is decided. When the treatment option is to remove the uterus, women's biggest concern is rightfully "will this negatively affect my sexual life?" "Will I experience menopause problems?" they ask.
-
Removing the uterus does not negatively affect sexual life.
-
There will be no bleeding after the uterus is removed, but as long as your ovaries stop, you will not enter menopause until your own menopause age. In other words, menopause is not related to the uterus and bleeding, but is related to the functions of the ovaries.
In treatment options, as well as the pathology result, the patient's age, family history, compliance with follow-up, presence of chronic diseases, whether they want children or not, whether there are other problems with the urogenital organs should be taken into consideration in the treatment of uterine thickening. These are the necessary elements.
As a result, uterine thickening is a standard procedure. nbsp; There is no treatment. Treatment for uterine thickening can be determined individually.
