After surgery to remove uterine fibroids, which department should you go to for a follow-up check-up?

Patient's question:

Two months ago, I had surgery to remove uterine fibroids, and the uterus was also removed. When I go back to the hospital for a follow-up check, which department should I register with? Additionally, if I didn't bring my surgical records, will it interfere with the doctor's thorough examination? What specific check-up items will be included in the follow-up?

Doctor's answer:

According to your description, you are undergoing a follow-up examination after surgery. Generally, you should go to the department where the surgery was performed. An ultrasound should be sufficient for a thorough examination. Not having your medical records should not be a problem.
In addition, during the treatment of uterine fibroids, apart from symptomatic treatment, the patient's dietary condition and psychological state are also particularly important. The patient must always maintain a cheerful mood and eat a balanced diet to avoid unnecessary interference with the recovery of uterine fibroids.
