Patient's question:
Recently, I've been feeling constant pain in my lower abdomen and soreness in my waist. Additionally, I've been experiencing discomfort and itching in my private area, with a burning sensation, especially in the afternoon. It's been really unbearable. What should I do if I have uterine fibroids?Doctor's answer:
The recurrence of uterine fibroids is related to hormonal imbalance. Tumors smaller than 5 cm can be treated with medication to control their growth. If the tumor is larger than 5 cm, doctors will recommend surgical treatment. Generally, a single fibroid can be removed through surgery. For patients with multiple fibroids who have not yet entered menopause, doctors may advise removing the uterus to prevent recurrence.For patients with uterine fibroids, in addition to regular treatment, it is also important to pay attention to self-care. For example, maintain cleanliness, avoid sexual activity, and eat fewer spicy and irritating foods. Finally, it is advised that female patients must undergo regular follow-up examinations!
