Cuando nos referimos a la palabra hipertrofia muscular, o simplemente a hipertrofia, hacemos énfasis en su definición médica. Se refiere al excesivo crecimiento o aumento descontrolado de un grupo celular, esto puede ocurrir en cualquier parte del organismo pues recordemos que nuestro cuerpo se compone de células.
Es por ello que, al momento de decir que hay una hipertrofia uterina signficia que hay un exceso de crecimiento celular en el útero.
That is why, at the time of saying that there is a uterine hypertrophy, it means that there is an excess of cell growth in the uterus.

It is common to know that the uterus tends to be able to grow physiologically due to the presence of a pregnancy or when menstruation arrives, in its normal state it measures approximately 6 to 8 cm. Likewise, we can diagnose when there is a uterine hypertrophy, the fact that it exists does not mean that it is pathological, however if a woman were to present an uncontrolled growth of her uterus beyond the normal parameters where there is no physiological condition that triggers (such as pregnancy), it is necessary to carry out a detailed study to rule out any pathology through the number of cells and their changes.
Por otro lado, cuando existe un crecimiento excesivo del útero y es por razones patológicas, la causa más común suele ser por tumores benignos dentro del útero.
On the other hand, when there is an excessive growth of the uterus and it is for pathological reasons, the most common cause is usually benign tumors within the uterus.
