Patient's question:
Last year, I had an issue, and after checking at the hospital, I was prescribed medication. Both topical and oral treatments quickly controlled it. However, recently, discomfort has returned to my private area, and my discharge is abnormal with a very strong odor. Please ask: After discovering uterine fibroids, how should they be treated?Doctor's answer:
The recurrence of uterine fibroids is related to hormonal imbalance. Tumors less than 5 cm can be treated with medication to control their growth. If the size is below 5 cm, doctors will recommend surgical treatment. Generally, a single fibroid can be removed through surgery. If there are multiple fibroids and the patient has not yet entered menopause, doctors may recommend hysterectomy to prevent recurrence. For patients with uterine fibroids, in addition to standard treatment, it is also important to pay attention to self-care, such as maintaining good hygiene in the private area and avoiding sexual activity during medication. Finally, it is advised that female patients undergo regular follow-up examinations!
