By:Eric Views:341

  Gynecology disease is any age female There are diseases that everyone has a chance to suffer from, especially some gynecological diseases that are more likely to appear in unmarried women. Therefore, unmarried women are reminded not to think that gynecological diseases have nothing to do with you. You should also pay attention to the following common diseases.

  1. Primary amenorrhea

  Girls should have menstruation when they are 13-15 years old, and menarche should occur no later than 17-18 years old. If menstruation does not come after the age of 18, it means primary amenorrhea. If amenorrhea occurs after menarche, it is called secondary amenorrhea.

  The onset of menstruation depends on the coordination and coordination of the functions of the hypothalamus, pituitary gland, and ovaries. Uterus The endometrium responds cyclically to sex hormones, the hypothalamus secretes gonadotropin-releasing hormone, and promotes the pituitary gland to secrete follicle-stimulating hormone and luteinizing hormone. Under the synergistic effect of these two hormones, the ovaries secrete estrogen and progesterone, and act on the endometrium, causing cyclic changes and shedding of the endometrium, which results in menstruation. As long as any one of these links is "stuck", primary amenorrhea will occur.

  There are three main categories of causes of primary amenorrhea: The first category is mental factors, such as stress, fear, worry, and excessive sadness, and mental anorexia. All can cause amenorrhea. The second type of reason is gynecological diseases, such as congenital absence of the reproductive system (no vagina, no uterus, no ovaries) or dysplasia, endometrial tuberculosis (commonly known as dry blood tuberculosis), antagonistic ovarian syndrome, etc. The third category of factors is caused by physical conditions. The human body is like a machine, and the internal organs are like parts of the machine. If a part breaks, the machine breaks down and cannot operate normally. In the same way, certain diseases can also cause primary amenorrhea. These diseases are common anemia , diabetes, tuberculosis, thyroid dysfunction, congenital adrenal hyperplasia, pituitary tumors and sex chromosome abnormalities, etc.

  2. No pubic hair

  Pubic hair is one of a person's secondary sexual characteristics. After puberty. Both pubic and armpit hair should appear due to sex hormones. Moreover, pubic hair appears earlier than the age of menarche, and pubic hair will appear around the age of 12. If young girls who have gone through puberty and have no pubic hair, they may suffer from endocrine diseases such as Turner syndrome, simple gonadal dysplasia and testicular feminization. Of course, if the pubic hair receptors are imperfect or absent. Or the hair follicles are diseased or too sparse, and pubic hair may be sparse or even absent.

  three, Itching of the vulva

  Married women, suffering from Vaginitisvulvitis And itching. Vulvar itching in girls is often caused by wearing chemical fiber underwear, jeans and other tight-fitting outer pants such as buttocks for a long time, and not paying attention to the cleaning and hygiene of the vulva.

  Chemical fiber or nylon underwear is not breathable, making the area moist and hot, affecting the respiration of perineal cells and causing itching. The perineum is contaminated by leucorrhea, urine, feces and menstrual blood. If you do not pay attention to local cleaning and hygiene, these dirt will irritate the local skin and cause vulvar itching. If the perineum suffers from skin diseases such as psoriasis, eczema, and neurodermatitis, it can also cause vulvar itching.

  4. Dysmenorrhea

  Dysmenorrhea occurs when obvious abdominal pain occurs before, after, or during menstruation, affecting study, life, and work. There are two types of dysmenorrhea: primary and secondary. The vast majority of dysmenorrhea in girls is primary, mainly caused by excessive prostaglandin content in the endometrium. During dysmenorrhea, there is pain in the lower abdomen, and sometimes the pain radiates to the vagina, anus and waist. When the abdominal pain is severe, the face becomes pale, cold sweat occurs, hands and feet are cold, and nausea, vomiting, and even fainting may occur. Generally, abdominal pain will not be relieved until the amount of menstrual blood increases.

  5. Functional uterine bleeding in adolescence

  Also known as adolescent dysfunction, it is caused by the delayed maturation of the hypothalamus center that manages the synthesis and release of pituitary gonadotropins. The hypothalamus-pituitary-ovary axis cannot move normally, and ovulation disorders occur in the ovaries. Follicles develop in the ovaries and can secrete estrogen, but they cannot mature. The estrogen level in the blood fluctuates with the growth and shrinkage of the follicles. When the estrogen level is high, the endometrium may undergo proliferative changes; when the estrogen level is low, the endometrium loses support and becomes necrotic, exfoliated, and hemorrhaged.

  The clinical manifestations of functional hemorrhage in adolescence are mainly menstrual cycle disorders and changes in menstrual flow. For example, menstrual periods vary in length, and the amount of bleeding is sometimes heavy and sometimes small. Sometimes it is dripping and dripping, and sometimes it is like bleeding. If this happens for a long time, it can easily cause anemia.

  From this point of view, even unmarried girls may suffer from gynecological diseases. When unmarried girls experience abnormal conditions such as "pre-pregnancy", lack of growth of pubic hair, itching of the vulva, abnormal menstruation, or severe abdominal pain during menstruation, they should see a gynecologist in time. Do not be shy and avoid medical treatment, so as not to delay the condition and affect health.
