Patient's question:
After I had the uterine fibroid surgery, I found that my menstrual flow was so pitifully small. Is it normal to have a reduced menstrual flow after uterine fibroid surgery?Doctor's answer:
Usually, uterine fibroids may cause recurrent abnormal vaginal bleeding, or even the possibility of recurrent contact bleeding. If a gynecological color Doppler ultrasound examination confirms it is a uterine fibroid, treatment needs to be based on the specific situation. If the fibroid is relatively large, surgical treatment may be considered. However, after surgery, it is also necessary for the female's menstrual cycle to return to normal, which requires a process. If the menstrual flow is still relatively low three months later, it is recommended to undergo a sex hormone examination to check for any abnormalities.Uterine fibroids are a common gynecological condition that is prone to occur. During treatment, women need to pay attention to their self-care. It is recommended to maintain external genital hygiene and change underwear frequently.
