Patient's question:
59-year-old female has been feeling quite tired recently and has noticed her body feeling unwell. Could this be the result of this condition? Please ask: Can an ultrasound detect uterine fibroids?Doctor's answer:
Uterine fibroids are a common type of benign tumor in female reproductive organs. They are relatively prevalent. Ultrasound is highly sensitive for the detailed examination of uterine fibroids. Generally, if there are uterine fibroids, ultrasound can detect them. If uterine fibroids persist for a long time, they may lead to conditions such as ovarian cysts, anemia, and infertility. Therefore, it is important to diagnose and treat them as soon as possible. Do not feel any psychological pressure, maintain a cheerful mood, and pay attention to getting more rest during this period. Additionally, maintain a light diet, avoiding greasy and spicy foods, which will benefit both you and the fetus in your womb.
