Patient's question:
The vagina always has irregular peeling. I went for a thorough examination and the doctor said I have uterine fibroids. Can uterine fibroids be cured?Doctor's answer:
Uterine fibroids are benign tumors that generally do not cause harm to the body and can often resolve on their own. There is no need to feel psychologically burdened about this. If the effects of medication are not sufficient, surgery may be considered to address the issue. Surgical treatments for uterine fibroids include myomectomy (removal of the fibroid) and hysterectomy (removal of the uterus). These surgeries can be performed via abdominal incision, vaginal approach, or through minimally invasive techniques such as hysteroscopy or laparoscopy. The choice of surgical approach depends on factors such as the patient's age, desire for future fertility, the size and location of the fibroids, and the available medical technology. Patients may also opt for focused ultrasound therapy guided by magnetic resonance imaging.
