Patient's question:
Auntie had been saying that she had severe lower abdominal pain and that it felt hard when touched. Due to many family matters and her son being busy with his wedding, she had never come to see a doctor. This time, I took her in for a thorough examination, and it was said that she had uterine fibroids. How urgent is it to have surgery for uterine fibroids?Doctor's answer:
Uterine fibroids are common benign gynecological tumors, and it is necessary to choose whether to undergo surgical treatment based on the patient's condition. If your aunt recently experiences lower abdominal bloating and discomfort, with a palpable abdominal mass accompanied by vaginal bleeding, it is recommended to undergo hysteroscopic surgery. Pathological examination is also required after the surgery. If it is currently only uncomfortable when touched, you can wait until your child gets married and is busy before scheduling the surgery. Uterine fibroids are a gynecological condition that is prone to occur. During medication, women need to pay attention to their own care, especially in terms of hygiene. It is recommended that patients pay close attention to maintaining external genital cleanliness and changing underwear frequently. Finally, we wish female patients a speedy recovery.
