Patient's question:
Hello, I accidentally got pregnant and had an ultrasound which revealed a uterine fibroid. Can I have an abortion procedure done at the same time?Doctor's answer:
Generally speaking, patients with uterine fibroids can undergo an abortion procedure, so you don't need to worry too much. You can have a specific and thorough examination before the surgery to determine the exact size of the fibroids. Recommendation: If the fibroid is larger than 5 cm, consider removing it along with the abortion surgery. If it is smaller than 5 cm, there is no need for surgical removal. After the abortion, pay attention to anti-inflammatory measures to prevent infection. Uterine fibroids are a common gynecological condition that is prone to occur. During treatment, women need to pay attention to their own care, especially in terms of hygiene. It is recommended that patients pay close attention to maintaining clean external genitalia and changing underwear frequently. Finally, we wish female patients a speedy recovery!
