Myoma uterus - a nodal benign neoplasm that appears in the muscular layer of the uterus. Most often, the disease occurs in women 40-50 years, but recently the disease is significantly «Pomolalohel» - nodal neoplasms are detected in women 20-30 years.

What is myoma uterus
The uterine myoma is a fairly widespread disease, while the causes of its occurrence are still not fully found out. It should be noted that the Mioma of the uterus rarely occurs before puberty and after menopause. In post-menopause, the growth of MIOM ceases and their reverse development is observed. Most studies confirm the fact that the development of Moma is associated with hormonal disorders, including hyperal generics (elevated levels of estrogen). With an elevated level of estrogen synthesis of muscle fibers of the uterus, as well as their tone enhances, while the growth rate of the endometrium layer increases. However, it is worth noting that the Mioma of the uterus arises in women with a normal menstrual cycle, t.E. without hormonal disorders.
Moma's risk factors:
- Menstrual violation
- Abortion
- Endometriosis
- Hormonal violations
- Cardiovascular disease
- Iron-deficiency anemia
- Hereditary predisposition
- overweight
Symptoms of moma uterus
The uterine myoma exhibits themselves in different ways: depending on the age, the nature of the tumor, the localization of myoma, concomitant diseases, individual characteristics of the disease.
The main symptoms include:
- Abundant menstrual bleeding - the most characteristic sign of myoma uterus. Bleeding gradually increases that in many cases can lead to anemia. Menstruation may be accompanied by thickening secretions.
- Pain symptom may absent. Moma pain appears in cases of complicated disease. Sharp pains occur in the case of twisting the legs of the misa or necrosis of the node of the Moma uterus.
- Violation of urination, constipation. There are in the case of the growth of Moma in the direction of the organs of the small pelvis - the bladder, the rectum. At the same time, the size of Moma reaches 10-12 weeks. Patients have a rapid or difficult urination, constipation and difficult defecation.
- Infertility. Depending on localization, the uterus mioma creates obstacles to promotion of eggs in the fallopian tubes. In some cases, the uterus can provoke miscarriage or premature labor.
The absence of pain perceived by some women like non-seriousness or insignificance of this disease. Such an attitude is fraught with serious consequences to which the rebirth of Moma in a malignant tumor or complete removal of the uterus in a childbearing age in women who have a desire to give birth to children.
Ultrasound diagnostics allows you to identify even the most minor seals that do not require treatment, but for which it is necessary to observe. The sharp growth of the nodes occurs due to the violation of the blood supply, which leads to edema and necrotic changes. The increase in size can also occur due to the increase in cell mass, but such cases are rare.
In the presence of nodes located under the mucous membrane of the uterine cavity, abundant bleeding are possible. The process of attaching the embryo in the uterus is broken, which is the cause of the usual miscarriage and infertility.
During menopause, most of the neoplasms are exposed to reverse development, but some achieve large sizes, disturbing the contractile ability of the uterus, which is why it is not able to stop menstrual bleeding.
Not always the disease manifests itself, maybe his asymptomatic flow, when a woman does not disturb anything and she does not appeal to the doctor. This can lead to a strong generation of the node and, as a result, to the need for surgical intervention.
