子宫（子宫内膜）息肉
什么是子宫（子宫内膜）息肉？
子宫息肉，也称为子宫内膜息肉，指子宫内膜过度生长形成的柔软肿物。息肉可能通过一个宽大的基底部附着在子宫内膜上，或者通过一根细茎伸出到子宫腔内。
通常，子宫息肉是良性或非癌性的，但可能引起与经期和生育能力相关的问题。
息肉常见于有月经的女性，在绝经期女性中较不常见。
子宫息肉与子宫肌瘤
与子宫息肉相似，子宫肌瘤也是过度生长形成的肿物，但子宫肌瘤不会出现在子宫内膜。它们是子宫壁内的肌肉过度生长形成的。
除大量出血外，子宫肌瘤还会引起疼痛、排尿困难和便秘。
子宫（子宫内膜）息肉有哪些症状？
如果您有子宫息肉，可能会出现以下情况：
- 月经不规律
- 月经期出血量很大
- 两次月经期之间出血或点滴出血
- 绝经后阴道点滴出血或出血
- 不孕不育
子宫（子宫内膜）息肉的病因是什么？
尚不清楚子宫息肉形成的确切原因。
然而，雌激素水平的变化与子宫内膜息肉有关。这是因为雌激素可刺激子宫内膜的生长。人们认为子宫内膜过度生长会导致子宫内膜息肉。
