Patient's question:
Female, 54 years old, her mother often experiences lower abdominal fullness and lower back pain. She doesn't know what's wrong with her. Later, she heard from a friend that it might be uterine fibroids. She wants to ask what are the treatment options for uterine fibroids?Doctor's answer:
If the fibroid is relatively large, and there is a significant amount of menstrual bleeding, surgical treatment is generally required. If the fibroid is small, medication can be considered first. It is recommended that you undergo an ultrasound examination at the hospital to determine the treatment plan based on the examination results. Different causes can lead to different symptoms, and patients need to seek systematic and standardized examination at a reputable Grade III-A hospital as soon as possible according to their specific condition. This is the only way to achieve symptomatic treatment and facilitate a quicker recovery.
