Patient's question:
49-year-old female knows she has discomfort in her body, so she hasn't gone to see a doctor. Please ask: Is a 6 cm uterine fibroid serious?Doctor's answer:
A uterine fibroid of 6 cm in size is relatively serious. It is recommended that you undergo surgery to remove the fibroid as early as possible. If it is a single fibroid, only the tumor needs to be removed. If it is recurrent, the severity of the condition will determine the treatment. In more severe cases, it may be necessary to remove the entire uterus.Rest is important during this time, and you should avoid overexertion. Maintain a light diet and stay in a positive mood. Do not allow yourself to be under any mental stress—maintain a cheerful attitude. Additionally, get plenty of rest and follow a diet, avoiding greasy and spicy foods. This will benefit both you and the baby.
