Patient's question:
Patient: Female, 29 years old1: On the left side, tightly adjacent to the center of the bladder, while gently pressing with my fingers, I noticed a protrusion. It felt like a semi-circular shape, small, and somewhat hard. I didn’t dare to press harder.
Menstrual cycle: Extended from 28 days to 25 days, which has been happening for about half a year. The amount of blood flow hasn’t changed significantly—considered not excessive.
Previous treatment history and effectiveness: No treatment.
Desired help: I want to know if what’s growing in this position is an uterine fibroid, and whether surgery is necessary.
Doctor's answer:
Right next to the center of the bladder on the left side, I noticed a protrusion while gently pressing with my fingers. It felt like a semi-circular shape, small, and relatively hard. It could be a uterine fibroid or an adnexal cyst. To the lady, I suggest you have a thorough check-up with an ultrasound. The ultrasound results will tell you what it is, and based on the results, you can then decide on the next steps in treatment. If the uterine fibroid is small, surgery is not necessary. I recommend you follow the treatment plan based on the thorough examination results. Wishing you good health. Uterine fibroids are a common gynecological condition that can easily occur. During medication, women need to pay attention to their self-care, especially in terms of care.
