Diffuse changes in myometrium

Myometrium is the muscular tissue of the uterus that is sent from the inside by a layer of the endometrium. It plays an important role in childbirth, because it is the rhythmic contraction of the myometrium that stimulates the fetus to move along the generic pathways. When diffuse changes in the myometrium itself are detected, the woman is diagnosed with endometriosis of the uterus. He, unfortunately, is the cause of every third case of infertility. The disease is a benign tumor formation, which appears due to the functioning of endometrial cells, which lining the uterine cavity and atypical proliferation of the mucosa. There is an ingrowth into the thickness of the myometrium of endometrial cells. This phenomenon can be provoked by diagnostic curettage, abortion and other intrauterine interventions. The diffuse process is more characteristic for internal endementriosis, but there are cases of revealing a nodular and focal form. With the nodular form, the growth occurs as a node of the myoma.

Causes of myometrial changes

In our time, the cause of the appearance of endometriosis is explained by the genetic predisposition and the theory of hormonal development of the disease, according to which the development of endometriosis is associated with a violation of the content and ratio of hormones in the female body. This is confirmed by certain changes in the foci of endometriosis during the menstrual cycle, as well as the reverse course of the development of the disease during pregnancy and in postmenopause.

Implant theory suggests that in certain specific situations, rejected endometrial particles give rise to the development of the disease. These are situations in which diffuse changes occur: surgical abortions, traumatic births, the casting of menstrual blood into the tubes from the uterus during spastic contractions of the uterus( during pain during menstruation, settle on the ovaries, tubes, abdomens).But more important are negative changes in the neuroendocrine system due to stress, general somatic diseases, malnutrition, infection of the genitals, changes in the functions of the endocrine glands.

Numerous observations revealed that these changes in myometrium( the onset of endometriosis) in 50% of cases develop against a background of thyroid gland diseases, quite often in autoimmune thyroiditis, also in cases of disorders in the functions of hormone production in the pituitary gland. In the treatment of endometriosis, the immune, endocrine and pelvic organs are simultaneously restored.

It happens that diffuse changes occur asymptomatically. But there are certain symptoms of diffuse changes in myometrium, expressed as: painful periods;Pains in the lower abdomen, accompanying ovulation, sexual intercourse, and urination;Severe bleeding, intermediate bleeding between menstruation;Infertility.

Diagnosis of changes in myometrium

Ultrasonography and endoscopy are used to diagnose this ailment. If these survey methods reveal that the echo pattern of the myometrium is not uniform, this indicates the presence of endometriosis, as well as the need for necessary treatment, after which it will be possible to plan pregnancy, and also bear, give birth to a child.

Treatment of changes in the myometrium

Traditional medicine involves two ways of treating endometriosis. This hormone therapy and surgery. Unfortunately, hormonal drugs are not only toxic enough, but in many studies, such treatment is not effective.

The second way - operational, is justified only in the case of the formation of external endometritis( this extragenital endometriosis), when the "cauterization" of the endometrioid tissue on other organs is used.

For the treatment of this complex disease, vegetable preparations are used that contribute to the restoration of the hormonal background without the use of chemical hormonal preparations, and also contribute to the increase of the immunity and protective forces of the female body that "destroy" the inflammatory processes and normalize the work of many systems and organs.
