Patient's question:
I am a 43-year-old woman and have been experiencing discomfort in my body, so I haven't gone to see a doctor yet. Please ask: If a uterine fibroid is detected, what should be noted?Doctor's answer:
According to your description, your uterine fibroid is relatively small. If you haven't experienced any menstrual changes, you may not need surgery for now. It's possible that it could shrink on its own as you age, but it's important to schedule regular follow-up appointments. In terms of diet, we should still focus on a light and simple diet, avoiding spicy, fried, and irritating foods. You should also limit the consumption of foods that may trigger symptoms, such as mutton, shrimp, and crabs, and take care to maintain a good mood and get plenty of rest.
