Patient's question:
I have uterine fibroids, and I have decided to seek treatment now because I am concerned about the impact on my health. How can uterine fibroids be effectively treated?Doctor's answer:
Large intramural or submucosal uterine fibroids can affect menstruation, often leading to prolonged cycles, extended periods, continuously increasing menstrual flow, and even causing anemia. Lower abdominal pain may be caused by pelvic inflammation and can be treated with traditional Chinese medicine for gynecological inflammation. Uterine fibroids are hormone-dependent tumors, and medication-based protective treatment is not very effective. Menstrual leakage may also be related to the use of blood-activating and stasis-resolving traditional Chinese medicine. It is recommended to stop using it and wait for observation. If the leakage still persists in the next cycle, it is advised to undergo a hysteroscopy examination, and if necessary, the fibroids close to the mucosa should be removed under the microscope.
