Hypertrophy of the uterus is a condition in which the uterus becomes abnormally enlarged due to increased muscle and connective tissue growth. it is typically caused by an imbalance of hormones, particularly estrogen, causing the uterus to grow too large. in some cases, the cause of the hormone imbalance is unknown, but it can also be caused by uterine fibroids, endometriosis, or a number of other medical conditions. hypertrophy of the uterus can lead to pelvic pain, pressure, and difficulty with urination or bowel movements. treatment typically includes hormone therapy or surgery to reduce the size of the uterus.
