The importance of the uterus in nurturing life for women is self-evident. If life is compared to a flower, then the endometrium is fertile soil. What is the reason for the thickening of the endometrium in some women?
The thickening of the endometrium in women can be caused by two reasons: endogenous estrogen and exogenous estrogen, and there may be several reasons under these two reasons. Thickening of the female endometrium may be caused by anovulation caused by endogenous estrogen. The endometrium receives stimulation from estrogen for a long time but not from progesterone. Over time, the endometrium will proliferate.
In addition, female obesity can also lead to thickening of the endometrium. Obese women have more adipose tissue and higher levels of estrogen secretion in their bodies. Prolonged high levels of estrogen can cause an increase in estrogen secretion, leading to thickening of the endometrium. Therefore, obesity can affect women's health, and there is scientific evidence to support this. Maintaining an appropriate body fat percentage is necessary to reduce the likelihood of women developing diseases.
In addition, exogenous estrogen can also cause thickening of the endometrium in women. Some women have reached a certain age and have already gone through menopause. Due to the low secretion of estrogen, they experience symptoms of menopause, accompanied by abnormal blood lipid metabolism, cardiovascular and brain cell changes. When receiving treatment with estrogen supplementation, they may experience thickening of the endometrium.
