Patient's question:
In August 2017, due to continuous menstruation, I had an examination for a 3CM uterine fibroid. In October 2018, the examination showed a 4CM fibroid with an endometrial thickness of 18MM, and a D&C surgery was performed. On February 17, 2019, the examination revealed a 53.7CM fibroid, and currently only one is detected. I am 43 years old, and I am considering whether to have a hysteroscopy surgery.Doctor's answer:
According to the situation you described, there is currently an uterine fibroid, the main consideration is related to the excretion of estrogen in the body. If it does not interfere with your menstrual cycle, you can temporarily undergo conservative irregular follow-up examinations. Alternatively, you can take oral medications such as Gongtuoqing to treat it. Hello, there is a possibility that there may be some endometrial polyps in the uterine cavity, which may lead to menstrual irregularities. Generally, a hysteroscopy examination should be performed at the hospital 3 to 7 days after the menstrual cycle ends. The cost is approximately 3,000 yuan for reference only. Hysteroscopy surgery usually requires about two weeks of rest after the procedure before you can return to work.
