Patient's question:
In August 2017, due to continuous menstruation, I had an examination for a 3CM uterine fibroid. In October 2018, the examination showed a 4CM fibroid with an endometrial thickness of 18MM, followed by a D&C surgery. On February 17, 2019, the examination revealed a 53, 7CM fibroid, and currently only one has been detected. I am 43 years old. Should I consider having a hysteroscopy? Can your hospital perform this procedure? How much does it cost? How long can office workers take off work for recovery? Can the surgery be scheduled? How do I follow up at the hospital?Medical history: No current medication. No history of previous illnesses or surgeries.
Doctor's answer:
Hello, based on the situation you described, there is currently an uterine fibroid, which is mainly considered related to estrogen excretion in the body. If it does not affect your menstrual cycle, it is recommended that you temporarily adopt a conservative approach with regular follow-up examinations. Alternatively, you can take medications such as Gongtuoqing to treat it.Guidance and Suggestions: Hello, it is currently suspected that there may be some endometrial polyps in the uterine cavity, which could lead to menstrual irregularities. Generally, a hysteroscopy procedure should be performed at the hospital 3 to 7 days after your menstrual cycle ends for a thorough examination. The approximate cost is for reference only.
