How big should a uterine fibroid be to be removed?

Patient's question:

41-year-old woman knows she has discomfort in her body, so she hasn't used it to see a doctor. Please ask: how big should uterine fibroids be removed?

Doctor's answer:

Uterine fibroids are a common benign tumor in gynecology. Generally, surgical intervention is required when they are about 5 centimeters in size. Whether the uterus needs to be removed depends on the location of the fibroids, the number of fibroids, and their size. You can go to the hospital for a check-up. The attending physician mentioned that uterine fibroid surgery is usually minimally invasive and will never affect survival, so there is no need to worry.
Do not have any psychological stress and maintain a positive mood. During this period, pay attention to getting plenty of rest, and maintain a light diet, avoiding greasy and spicy foods. This will be beneficial for both you and the fetus in your womb.
