AI Article Synopsis
- A study of over 2.5 million young females showed that those with depression had a higher likelihood of developing uterine leiomyoma compared to those without depression.
- The risk of developing these tumors was notably greater in individuals with recurrent depression.
- It is recommended that young females with depression undergo screening for uterine leiomyoma, especially if they are older or have cholesterol issues.
Article Abstract
Based on analyses of 22,487,947 person-years of follow-up data in a cohort of 2,523,565 young females, we found that the presence of depression was associated with a higher cumulative incidence of new-onset uterine leiomyoma than the absence of depression. This risk was even higher in patients with recurrent depression, and depression had a significant interaction with relatively old age and dyslipidemia. Screening for uterine leiomyoma is advisable in young females experiencing depression, as they appear to be at increased risk for developing this tumor type.
