Can uterine fibroids be removed through a D&C?

Patient's question:

I found out through a thorough examination at the hospital that I have uterine fibroids at such a young age. Hello, can uterine fibroids be cleared through a D&C?

Doctor's answer:

It is possible to have a D&C (dilation and curettage) even with uterine fibroids, but if the fibroids are large, they may affect the procedure. It depends on the specific situation. You should first undergo a thorough medical examination at the hospital. If there is residual tissue or if the endometrium is relatively thick, a D&C or diagnostic may be necessary to rule out residual endometrial inflammation. If the fibroids are large, surgical treatment may also be required.
