Patient's question:
I have been married for many years, experiencing irregular menstruation and vaginal bleeding. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, I was diagnosed with uterine fibroids. How should uterine fibroids be treated?Doctor's answer:
The recurrence of uterine fibroids is related to hormonal imbalance. When the tumor size is below 5 cm, medication can be used to control the growth of the fibroids. If the size is below 5 cm, doctors may 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 the fibroids from recurring.In addition, during the treatment of uterine fibroids, in addition to medication, the patient's dietary condition and psychological state are also crucial. Patients must always maintain a positive mood and eat a balanced diet to avoid unnecessary interference with the complete recovery of uterine fibroids.
