Patient's question:
Three years ago, my uterus and bilateral adnexal ovaries were removed due to multiple uterine fibroids. In the past year, I have been experiencing frequent hot flashes and excessive thirst. My reproductive organs and vagina are noticeably swollen, the skin around the vaginal opening lacks elasticity, and sexual intercourse is difficult. Additionally, a fibroid has also grown on the vaginal wall, which hasn't been resolved yet. Can I use estriol cream? How can I stabilize these symptoms?Doctor's answer:
Because multiple uterine fibroids can lead to the removal of the uterus, and both adnexa have already been removed, it is naturally likely to experience sexual dysfunction again. Maintaining female function primarily depends on the ovaries. If you have had both ovaries removed, it is natural to experience these reactions again, and sexual harmony may be slightly disrupted. You can appropriately use many lubricants. Uterine fibroids pose significant harm to patients. Once symptoms are detected, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. At the same time, pay close attention to self-care training, eat more vegetables and fruits, and avoid stimulating foods. It is hoped that uterine fibroid patients can receive professional treatment.
