Patient's question:
I am a 50-year-old woman who went through menopause two years ago. However, 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. I would like to ask: Is there any postoperative complication after uterine fibroid surgery?Doctor's answer:
Uterine fibroids are a common benign tumor in women of reproductive age. If multiple uterine fibroids affect menstruation and the patient is over 45 years old, surgical treatment can be considered. In your case, it is best to have the surgery at a higher-level hospital, which will not leave any aftereffects. Additionally, during the treatment period, patients need to maintain a balanced diet, follow a regular schedule, actively participate in physical exercise, regulate physical and mental health, and maintain personal hygiene to avoid bacterial invasion due to weakened immunity.
