Does uterine fibroids cause lower back pain during menstruation?

Patient's question:

23-year-old female has been feeling weak all over and lacking energy lately. I'm very concerned. Please ask: does uterine fibroids cause lower back pain during menstruation?

Doctor's answer:

Uterine fibroids, also known as leiomyomas, are a common benign tumor of the female reproductive system. Most are asymptomatic, while a very small number may present with symptoms such as vaginal bleeding, palpable abdominal masses, and symptom control. The exact cause of this condition is unclear, and modern Western medicine employs hormone therapy or surgical treatment. Do not feel any psychological stress, maintain a cheerful mood, and pay attention to getting plenty of rest during this period. Additionally, maintain a light diet, avoiding greasy and spicy foods, which will benefit both you and the fetus.
