Slightly weaker sex in this country who understand the difference between a cyst and uterine disease (myom). Indeed, both these diseases are both a kind of tumor that attacks the female reproductive organs. At a certain level of benign cysts and myomas.

Growth of myomas, or uterine myomas medical terms, is influenced by several factors, including hormonal status. Hormones have an important role in uterine activity, particularly the hormone estrogen.

The hormone estrogen can stimulate tumor growth in this one. Therefore, the network has a number of uterine estrogen receptor was higher than muscle tissue content. So often grow faster in the reproductive age, especially during pregnancy.

What makes myomas is dangerous because it can grow more than one location in the uterus, with the weight and size vary. 'This causes disturbances in the womb, "said Mulyadi Tedjaprana, Director of Clinical Medizone.

The most important is regular exercise. 'Habits of cigarettes and alcohol certainly must be stopped. If possible, also avoid stress, 'firmly Mulyadi.

Although only 0.1% of the total cases of these benign tumors that develop into malignant cancers, according to Martin, it is not impossible in the future will more and more women who develop cysts or myomas. 'If not prevented early on, cysts can grow so deadly ovarian cancer,' said he.

Currently, according to Martin, ovarian cancer is the leading cause of death in cases of gynecological diseases in the United States. In the land of Uncle Sam's, ovarian cancer is a disease that causes the death of five women after lung cancer, colorectal, breast, and pancreas.
