Cervical Ectropion and Isoflavones

Cervical erosion (cervical ectropion)



Cervical erosion

(also known as a

cervical ectropion

) is a partial or complete absence of the squamous epithelium of the cervix. The non-keratinising stratified squamous epithelium on the surface of the cervix and/or around the os (external opening) is replaced by glandular columnar epithelium from within the cervical canal. This endocervical tissue is red and granular, so it gives the cervix a red, eroded, and infected appearance.


Ectropion

can be associated with excessive but non-purulent vaginal discharge due to the increased surface area of columnar epithelium containing mucus-secreting glands. It may also give rise to post-coital bleeding as fine blood vessels present within the columnar epithelium are easily traumatized.

Cervical erosion and cervical cancer



Cervical Ectropion and IsoflavonesWomen suffering from

cervical erosion

is most concerned about

cervical erosion

will not cause cancer, will develop into

cervical cancer

. Indeed,

cervical cancer

and

cervical ertropion

between the two closely related to people suffering from

cervical erosion

of the high incidence of cervical cancer. According to Lin Qiaozhi Gynecologic expert data,

cervical ectropion

of women's cervical cancer incidence rate of 0.73 percent, with

cervical erosion

were only 0.10 percent. Beijing, Shanghai and Chongqing and other places of the Census and Statistics cervical cancer, cervical found that there is no erosion than those who are rotten to the core with a high incidence of 5 to 10 times.

Patients with

cervical ectropion

in the incidence of cervical cancer than those with

cervical erosion

high, generally considered vulnerable to a variety of cervical physical, chemical and biological factors such as the stimulation, in particular, trauma, hormones and viral factors have been so rotten to the core of the cervix Epithelial cell mutation active and easy to develop precancerous lesions, and then into cervical cancer. It was reported that the process of variation of up to seven or eight years, or even more than a decade. As a result, for patients with

cervical erosion

should be early detection and timely treatment for recovery. This is one of the major women's health, reproductive age woman is also a requirement for an annual gynecological examination of one of the main reasons.

Soy isoflavones against cervical ectropion and cervical cancer



Soy

(Glycine max) contains compounds that have been effective against tumors. Genistein, an isoflavone found in soy, has been found in laboratory and animal studies to possess anti-cancer effects, such as blocking new blood vessel growth (anti-angiogenesis), acting as a tyrosine kinase inhibitor (a mechanism of many new cancer treatments), or causing cancer cell death (apoptosis). Until reliable human research is available, it remains unclear if dietary soy or soy isoflavone supplements are beneficial, harmful, or neutral in people with various types of cancer. Caution is advised when taking soy supplements, as numerous adverse effects including an increased risk of drug interactions are possible.

Soy can act as a food allergen similar to milk, eggs, peanuts, fish, and wheat.

The use of soy is often discouraged in patients with hormone-sensitive malignancies such as breast, ovarian, or uterine cancer, due to concerns about possible estrogen-like effects (which theoretically may stimulate tumor growth). Other hormone-sensitive conditions such as endometriosis may also theoretically be worsened. In laboratory studies, it is not clear if

isoflavones

stimulate or block the effects of estrogen or both (acting as a "receptor agonist/antagonist"). Until additional research is available, patients with these conditions should be cautious and speak with a qualified healthcare practitioner before starting use.

It is not known if soy or soy

isoflavones

share the same side effects as estrogens, such as increased risk of blood clots. Preliminary studies suggest that soy

isoflavones

, unlike estrogens, do not cause the lining of the uterus (endometrium) to build up.


So, is soy the next miracle food? Extensive research is starting to show the myriad of health benefits from soy, especially soy

isoflavones

.

isoflavones

are phytochemicals that are part of the soy protein. To date, many different

isoflavones

have been identified, and each appears to have specific health implications.

isoflavones

called daidzein and genistein may also help our bones conserve calcium and thereby reduce the risk of osteoporosis. Genistein is one of the

isoflavones

that is especially beneficial in lowering blood cholesterol levels. Some

isoflavones

are believed to have anticarcinogenic properties, which may inhibit the growth of cancerous cells. The positive health benefits of soy and

isoflavones

are clear.

How much do you need?



There are no current recommendations for the amount of soy, or

isoflavones

, to consume each day for maximum health benefit. Some sources say 40-50 mg

isoflavones

, or 1-4 servings of soy products, per day appears to be enough to have an influence on our health. People in Asian countries tend to consume much more than this, so the ultimate word is still out, but, 40-50 mg

isoflavones

/day seems like a good place to start at this point.
