What are the possible causes of uterine fibroids

Patient's question:

What kind of help do you care about: Want to know the causes of uterine fibroids

Doctor's answer:

Guidance: For small uterine fibroids (<3 cm), if there are no symptoms, careful observation and close follow-up with B reexaminations every 3-6 months can be adopted. Drug treatment for uterine fibroids is not very effective; some patients may see the fibroid stop growing during medication, but it will rapidly grow back after stopping the medication, so it is not considered a primary treatment method. Clinical diagnosis generally considers a fibroid size of 5 cm as a treatment indication. If there are surgical indications and symptoms are significant, active treatment can be pursued. There are many different surgical approaches, such as fibroid removal, laparoscopic surgery, hysteroscopic surgery, uterine artery embolization, and magnetic resonance ablation, among others.
