25
Benign overgrowth of the endometrium
Endometrial hyperplasia
26
* Due to excess estrogen and deficient progesterone * M/c symptom is abnormal vaginal bleeding. Can lead to endometrial cancer
Endometrial hyperplasia
27
* Estrogen-dependant, non-cancerous disorder * Functioning endometrial tissue implanted outside the uterine cavity | Common up to 60% of women
Endometriosis
28
M/c occurs in ovaries, fallopian tubes, broad ligaments, bladder, pelvic musculature, perineum, vulva, vagina, intestines
Endometriosis
29
* Incidence increased in first-degree relatives, suggesting genetics a factor * Incidence also increased in women who delay childbearing who have shortened menstrual cycles with menses that are abnormally long
Endometriosis
30
* Endometrial cells transported from uterine cavity to ectopic sites
Endometriosis
31
Retrograde flow of menstrual tissue could transport endometrial cells
Endometriosis
32
Endometriotic implants identical to intrauterine endometrium, with identical estrogen and progesterone receptors, allowing for growth
Endometriosis
33
Treatment includes: pregnancy, nsaids, meds, birth control pills, surgery
Endometriosis
34
# Aka Uterine Fibroids Benign uterine tumors of smooth muscle origin
Leiomyoma
35
Primary reason for hysterectomies
Leiomyoma
36
Cancer lining the uterus
Uterine cancer
37
M/c cancer of the female reproductive organs
Uterine cancer
38
Related to any condition that increases estrogen exposure, unopposed by progesterone
Uterine Cancer
39
Cigarette smoking, physical activity, hormonal contraceptives appear to decrease risk
Uterine cancer
