Patient's question:
I got married last year. Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried about it affecting my fertility, and I also feel extremely cold and afraid of the cold. Could you please tell me what are the symptoms of uterine fibroids? What is the best method of treatment?Doctor's answer:
Common clinical manifestations include uterine bleeding, abdominal masses, pain, compression symptoms of adjacent organs, increased leukorrhea, infertility, anemia, and cardiac dysfunction. The recurrence of uterine fibroids is related to hormonal imbalance. Tumors less than 5 cm can be treated with medication to suppress their growth. If the tumor is below 5 cm, surgical treatment is recommended. Generally, a single fibroid can be removed through surgery. For multiple fibroids in patients who have not yet entered menopause, the doctor may recommend hysterectomy to prevent further growth of the fibroids.
