What is Endometrial Hyperplasia?

Endometrial hyperplasia is a condition where the uterine lining (endometrium) becomes excessively thick due to prolonged oestrogen stimulation without sufficient progesterone. It can lead to abnormal bleeding and, in some cases, increase the risk of endometrial cancer.

Types of Endometrial Hyperplasia

1. Simple Hyperplasia (without Atypia): Mild thickening, low cancer risk.

2. Complex Hyperplasia (without Atypia): More glandular crowding but still low cancer risk.

3. Simple Atypical Hyperplasia: Abnormal cells are present, indicating a moderate cancer risk.

4. Complex Atypical Hyperplasia: Significant abnormal cell changes, high risk of progression to cancer.

Impact on Women's Health

• Abnormal Uterine Bleeding: Heavy, prolonged, or irregular periods, as well as postmenopausal bleeding.

• Pelvic Pain & Discomfort: Due to thickened endometrium.

• Anaemia: Caused by excessive blood loss.

• Infertility Issues: Can interfere with implantation and pregnancy.

• Increased Cancer Risk: Atypical hyperplasia can lead to endometrial carcinoma if untreated.

Conclusion

Homeopathy provides a holistic approach to managing endometrial hyperplasia, addressing underlying hormonal imbalances, and improving overall well-being. However, for severe cases, medical supervision is essential to prevent complications. Since homeopathy is highly individualized, consulting a qualified homeopath ensures the best remedy selection based on the patient's unique symptoms. A detailed case-taking session with a qualified homeopath is crucial to select the most appropriate remedy, potency, and dosage.
