Difference between clear and unclear boundaries of uterine fibroids

Patient's question:

Clear and distinct, after a period of treatment, another check-up shows it has significantly shrunk, approximately 0.90.6 CM in size. However, the imaging still shows unclear boundaries. Previously, the boundaries were clear. Could you please explain to the doctors, what is the difference between clear and unclear boundaries of uterine fibroids?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, the uterine fibroid you mentioned is a common gynecological tumor in women, generally a benign condition. The fibroid may gradually increase in size, causing symptoms such as pain and increased menstrual bleeding. According to your description, this uterine fibroid is very small, and it is usually not a major issue. It is recommended to wait and see first, because I heard that fibroids with unclear boundaries need to be cautious. I just wanted to ask if it's because the fibroid is too small that it may also appear unclear in an ultrasound.
