Does uterine fibroids cause frequent urination and urgency?

Patient's question:

My aunt recently discovered a uterine fibroid through a thorough examination. She has been experiencing some urinary frequency and urgency lately. Hello, can uterine fibroids cause urinary frequency and urgency?

Doctor's answer:

If the uterine fibroid is very large, it can easily lead to recurrent urinary frequency and urgency. You need to go to the hospital for a thorough examination of the type of uterine fibroid and decide whether to observe carefully or undergo surgical treatment based on the size of the fibroid. Uterine fibroids can be surgically removed through the abdomen or laparoscopy. Uterine fibroids can easily cause menstrual disorders and an increase in menstrual volume, which can lead to anemia. Women aged 40-50 are prone to developing uterine fibroids due to hormonal imbalance.
