The vagina and cervix is lined with a special tissue, called squamous epithelium, which must be present in a healthy woman in a smear.
However, with its excessive growththe proliferation of the glandular epithelium, which is characterized by the appearance of atypical cells, is diagnosed. This pathology may develop as a result of benign breast diseases in which rapid tissue proliferation is accompanied by pain and unusual secretion. In addition, the proliferation of glandular epithelium may occur due to excessive exposure to female sex hormones, as well as various inflammations that are caused by a violation of microflora or urogenital infections. It should be noted that such a condition in most cases does not constitute a significant danger to women's health, but this does not mean that it should not be treated.
Hyperplasia of the glandular epithelium
Endometrial hyperplasia is called uterine disease, in which there is
tissue proliferation, as well as changes in the structuremucous membrane and glands. This process is carried out by direct and indirect cell division and growth of cytoplasmic ultrastructures. The causes of hyperplasia include disorders of the nervous regulation of metabolic processes, impaired functioning of the organs of internal secretion, the effect on the organs and tissues of growth stimulants, and hereditary predisposition. In most cases, endometrial hyperplasia, like the proliferation of glandular epithelium, is asymptomatic, but in some women it can provoke dysfunctional bleeding and such symptoms of anemia as weakness, dizziness and loss of appetite.
Adenomatous uterine polyp
Adenoma is a disease that is accompanied by the proliferation of the uterine membrane, the mucous membrane of the cervical canal and the formation of specific outgrowths -
polyps.In other words, it is the proliferation of glandular epithelium, which is localized in a specific place. Adenomatous uterine polyp is considered a precancerous condition that occurs as a result of a violation of the production of the female sex hormone. However, other factors, such as the chronic form of adnexitis and endometritis, as well as numerous abortions, also predispose to the development of this disease.
Symptoms and treatment
Основными симптомами маточных полипов являются bleeding, discomfort during intercourse, frequent pain and infertility. Treatment of the disease is carried out surgically using excision of education or curettage of the uterus. Precancerous diseases of the female reproductive system can exist for a very long time without showing themselves. However, there are cases when atypical cells are so rapidly transformed into cancer cells that it is already rather difficult, and sometimes impossible, to eliminate them. Therefore, at the first alarm signals, it is necessary to visit a gynecologist and pass the necessary tests.
