Factors

The main cause of uterine fibroids is a violation of the level of hormones, in which estrogen prevails over progesterone. Factors:

• Early menstruation, which affects the increase in cell division, which increases the risk of mutations in the genes responsible for the growth of uterine cells.
• No childbirth.
• Lack of ovulation (no release of the egg), while there is a constant effect of estrogens on the inner layer of the uterus (during pregnancy, the effect of estrogens decreases).
• Obesity, which leads to an increase in estrogen, which affects the inner layer of the uterus

Kinds

There are types of uterine fibroids depending on the type of location:

• subserous form of fibroids, the location of the myomatous node closer to the outer surface of the uterine wall
• intramural form of fibroids, the location of most of the myomatous node inside the wall of the uterus
• submucosal form of fibroids, the location of the myomatous node closer to the inner layer of the uterus, which forms the deformation of the cavity pedunculated myoma nodes
