Should uterine fibroids be treated?

Patient's question:

My friend has uterine fibroids. She initially thought she was pregnant, but no one knows why so many fibroids could grow. So she is now in great pain, wondering what to do? Hello, could you please advise whether treatment is necessary for uterine fibroids?

Doctor's answer:

If it is a simple uterine fibroid, there is no need to be too anxious or worried, after all, uterine fibroids are generally more commonly benign, and the probability of malignancy is rare. If there are no other symptoms, regular monitoring of the condition of the uterine fibroid can be sufficient. If changes in the menstrual cycle or abnormal urination and defecation occur, or if the uterine fibroid rapidly decreases in size, it is recommended to seek medical attention promptly, and surgical treatment may be necessary if needed.
