Patient's question:
For women, some who are in their 50s and in good health still have their menstrual periods, but I have already gone through menopause before I reached 50. Previously, I had a thorough examination and was diagnosed with uterine fibroids. After a period of medication treatment, they have improved a lot. But I want to ask, do uterine fibroids disappear after menopause?Doctor's answer:
After menopause, the uterus will gradually expand. Of course, the fibroids will also expand along with the uterus, but they will not completely disappear. After expansion, there will be no further impact. In other words, since you have already gone through menopause, there is no need for surgery to treat the fibroid. There will also be no symptoms, and regular ultrasound check-ups are sufficient. The daily treatment for patients with uterine fibroids mainly focuses on symptomatic treatment. Patients can take some oral medications, supplement with vitamins, and pay attention to their diet by eating light, soft, and liquid foods. We hope that uterine fibroid patients can recover quickly! Thank you!
