Patient's question:
I am a 49-year-old woman who went through menopause two years ago, but recently I have been experiencing intense itching in my external genitalia and around the vaginal opening, and the odor of my discharge is also quite strong. Please ask: What are the types of surgery for multiple uterine fibroids?Doctor's answer:
For multiple uterine fibroids, if there are no other symptoms, medication can be used, and follow-up checks should be scheduled regularly, usually every 3-6 months. If there are other symptoms, such as changes in menstruation, control symptoms (changes in urination or defecation), significant uterine enlargement, or a risk of malignant transformation, surgical treatment is recommended. Surgical options generally include uterine fibroid embolization, hysterectomy, laparoscopic surgery, and hysteroscopic surgery, etc. The doctor will determine the most suitable surgical plan based on your symptoms, the size and location of your fibroids.
