Patient's question:
A few days ago, my period was not normal. At the time, I didn't really care that my good friend insisted on dragging me to the hospital for a thorough examination, so I went with her. After going there, the doctor said through an ultrasound that I have uterine fibroids, but I didn't feel any pain. Should uterine fibroids be treated?Doctor's answer:
If you have uterine fibroids but don't feel any symptoms in your body, this situation can actually be left untreated. This is because uterine fibroids are benign tumors that will not cause any significant impact on your health. It's only when the diameter of the fibroids is relatively large that they may affect surrounding organs, potentially causing some abdominal pain or changes in menstrual bleeding. Since you don't have any symptoms, it's okay to leave it for now.
