What should I do if my menstrual cycle remains abnormal after uterine fibroid surgery?

Patient's question:

At the end of 2017, I had surgery for uterine fibroids. My menstruation has been irregular ever since. This month, my menstrual flow has been heavy, and it has been 10 days already. I am dizzy from the bleeding and flow. Is it possible that my endometrium has thickened?

Doctor's answer:

The fibroid is close to the endometrium, interfering with menstrual volume. Based on your description, it is recommended to undergo an MRI to rule out organic diseases. If the examination results are normal, a D&C (dilation and curettage) with pathology examination can be considered. There are many treatment methods for uterine fibroids, but the specific approach depends on the patient's symptoms. Therefore, patients need timely and thorough examination and diagnosis to receive symptomatic treatment.
