Patient's question:
These days, when I wash my underwear, I always find a lot of curd-like secretions on them, and they smell very unpleasant. I also feel that my private area is always damp and itchy, and my lower abdomen is uncomfortable. Please ask: How are uterine fibroids treated?Doctor's answer:
For uterine fibroid surgery, whether the uterus needs to be removed depends on the location, size of the fibroids, as well as the patient's age, fertility status, and the severity of symptoms. Although uterine fibroids are benign tumors with a malignancy rate of only 1%, patients should be closely monitored, visit the hospital for thorough examinations and treatments, to prevent conditions such as ovarian and fallopian tube inflammation, which may lead to adenocarcinoma of the uterine body and cervical cancer. Fibroids are a common gynecological condition that can easily occur. During treatment, women need to pay attention to their self-care, especially in terms of hygiene. It is recommended that patients maintain clean external genitalia and change underwear frequently. Finally, we wish female patients a speedy recovery!
