Patient's question:
Last month I was diagnosed with uterine fibroids, and this month my period hasn't come. I want to ask if uterine fibroids can cause missed periods?Doctor's answer:
Hello, the uterine fibroids were carefully detected last month. Uterine fibroids should have existed for some time; they don't form in just one or two months. Therefore, the current absence of menstruation is not closely related to uterine fibroids. Uterine fibroids generally do not cause amenorrhea. If menstruation lasts a long time and does not occur, it is important to check whether you are pregnant. If you are not pregnant, at your age, it could also be menstrual irregularities during menopause.
