Patient's question:
I have uterine fibroids, and I have decided to undergo treatment now because I am concerned about the impact on my health. Could you please tell me what are the common effects of uterine fibroids?Doctor's answer:
Hello, fibrosis of the cells is very active but still considered benign inflammation. There is a possibility of it expanding into malignant inflammation, so close follow-up is necessary. Cervical cancer is primarily caused by persistent infection with high-risk human papillomavirus (HPV). It is recommended to undergo HPV typing tests at regular public hospitals. If there is no viral infection, it is generally unlikely to develop cervical cancer. For patients with uterine fibroids, in addition to timely treatment, it is also important to pay attention to self-care training, such as maintaining hygiene during treatment and keeping the private area clean. Finally, it is advised that female patients undergo regular follow-up examinations!
