What Causes Uterine Problems?
Uterine Fibroids – The exact cause of uterine fibroids is unknown. However, some factors such as hormones, family history and pregnancy raise the chance of uterine fibroids.
Endometriosis – It is typically caused by infections and conditions like STI (sexually transmitted infections), tuberculosis and infections from common vaginal bacteria.
Uterine prolapse – Ageing, lower levels of oestrogen, damaged pelvic muscles or tissues, obesity, chronic constipation, and chronic cough can raise the chances of uterine prolapse.
Uterine tuberculosis - Sexual contact with an infected person
How are Uterine Problems diagnosed?
To diagnose uterine issues, your physician will first study your medical history and family history in detail. A vaginal examination may be examined to check for any cause or abnormalities. You may also recommend some laboratory testing such as a PAP smear test to help identify the cause of the uterine problem. Imaging tests such as X-rays, CT scans, sonograms or MRI may also be prescribed.
How are Uterine Problems Treated?
Uterine problems may be treated using a combination of medication (including hormones), exercises and surgery such as hysterectomy, and myomectomy. For some conditions, ‘watchful waiting' may be recommended. This means that no treatment is provided, but you will have to visit your doctor regularly to keep track of your condition and track symptoms.
