Patient's question:
I would like to ask what are the symptoms of uterine fibroids in women? How should women be treated if they have uterine fibroids.Doctor's answer:
Uterine fibroids are common benign tumors in gynecology with a very low rate of malignant transformation. The symptoms of uterine fibroids vary depending on their size and location. Some can be felt in the abdomen, while others may cause excessive menstrual bleeding or a shorter bleeding duration. In terms of treatment, uterine fibroids generally grow slowly, and small tumors can be carefully monitored with regular follow-up examinations. If the fibroids affect daily life or grow rapidly, surgical treatment may be necessary. The recurrence of uterine fibroids poses a serious threat to women's health. Patients need to maintain external genital hygiene and avoid sexual activity in daily life.
