Patient's question:
The uterus has been experiencing particularly severe and unbearable pain for the past few weeks, and it's also discharging some blood clots and fluid. It smells like a foul odor, and I felt extremely painful, so I went to the hospital for a specific examination, where they diagnosed it as a uterine fibroid. What should I do now that I have a uterine fibroid?Doctor's answer:
After developing uterine fibroids, the first step is to determine the location and size of the fibroids. If it is a submucosal fibroid, it is most likely to affect menstruation and can also impact pregnancy. Regardless of size, it is recommended to undergo hysteroscopic surgery to remove it, which can be cured. However, if it is a fibroid in another location, and it is small with relatively obvious symptoms, it is generally mainly caused by infection, so medication can be actively used. But if the fibroid is relatively large, exceeding 5.0 centimeters, surgical treatment is usually required.In addition to treating uterine fibroids, it is recommended to pay attention to diet in daily life and maintain a cheerful mood at all times to enhance physical fitness and speed up recovery.
