Patient's question:
Mom was diagnosed with uterine fibroids. She said that her menstrual cycle has been abnormal for these past few months, and she always feels a heavy sensation in her lower abdomen. When she touched it, it felt like there was a hard lump. As a result, she developed uterine fibroids, and she is very worried. How can uterine fibroids be resolved? Is it necessary to have surgery to remove the uterus?Doctor's answer:
If you have undergone a thorough ultrasound examination and have been confirmed to have uterine fibroids, the main purpose is to check the size and number of the uterine fibroids. If the uterine fibroids are relatively small, treatment may not be necessary at this time, and regular follow-up ultrasounds are recommended. If the uterine fibroids are larger, or if there are multiple uterine fibroids that have caused abnormal menstrual bleeding, surgery may be required. If there are multiple uterine fibroids, the uterus may need to be removed. The recurrence of uterine fibroids poses a serious threat to women's health, and patients should avoid sexual activity during treatment and pay attention to personal hygiene. Finally, we hope that female patients can receive effective treatment.
