Causes Of Fluid In The Uterus After Menopause

Written by Ryan Brown - January 13, 2023

Menopause is a natural biological process in women that typically occurs around the age of 50 when reproductive functioning begins to decline and menstrual cycles cease. While many factors can contribute to fluid buildup in the uterus after menopause, some of the most common include:

• Hormonal Imbalances: Estrogen helps maintain the endometrial lining of the uterus and supports healthy menstrual cycles. When hormonal imbalances occur due to menopause, estrogen levels can drop and lead to a lack of proper uterine regulation, resulting in fluid retention. Furthermore, certain conditions like Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) may accompany menopause and also contribute to hormone-related issues.
• Endometrial Hyperplasia: A result of too much estrogen in relation to progesterone, endometrial hyperplasia thickens the uterine lining which can cause fluids or blood clots from slower moving blood flow. This condition is very common in postmenopausal women and can be treated with hormone replacement therapy or other medications prescribed by your doctor.
• Uterine Cancer: Though less common than hormonal imbalances or endometrial hyperplasia, it is possible for fluid in the uterus after menopause to be caused by uterine cancer; further testing may be required if your doctor suspects this diagnosis.

The best way to prevent fluid build-up in the uterus during right after menopause is through lifestyle changes and attention to diet and exercise routine. Eating balanced meals full of vegetables, fruits, whole grains, protein-rich foods and healthy fats while avoiding processed and junk food will help keep hormones balanced even as reproductive aging takes place. Regular exercise such as walking or light jogging combined with stretching or yoga will also help keep fluid at bay by improving circulation throughout the body. Additionally, consider adding dietary supplements high in B vitamins and omega-3 fatty acids which can also aid towards a healthier post-menopausal period for all women.
