Cystic Endometrial Hyperplasia
A syndrome where repeated progesterone exposure causes the uterine lining to thicken and form fluid-leaking cysts.
Key Facts
- It develops after multiple non-pregnant estrous cycles due to prolonged progesterone influence.
- The thickened lining and cysts create an environment prone to fluid accumulation.
- It is the primary pathological precursor to hydrometra, mucometra, and pyometra.
- It significantly reduces fertility and increases the risk of severe uterine disease.
