Patient's question:
Female, 31 years old, my uterine fibroids have been discovered for 10 years, prone to occurring. Currently hospitalized for treatment, and surgery has not been performed yet. The doctor suggested that the uterus could be removed, but friends around me have all sorts of opinions. Can uterine fibroids be cured after being detected?Doctor's answer:
Uterine fibroids are one of the common benign tumors in the human body. They generally do not progress to malignancy, so there is no need to worry too much. If the size of the fibroid is not larger than 5 cm and there are no other symptoms, it is best to wait and see without any treatment. If it is larger than 5 cm or growing rapidly, it is better to have surgery to remove it. This treatment method is more effective. Different causes can lead to different symptoms. Patients need to go to a formal Grade III-A hospital as soon as possible for systematic and standardized examinations based on their condition to receive symptomatic treatment. Additionally, patients should maintain a regular schedule, take precautions against cold and keep warm, eat light and soft foods, ensure good ventilation, and drink plenty of hot water.
