Patient's question:
I have been feeling unwell these days. After a thorough examination at the hospital, I found out that I have uterine fibroids. I would like to ask, how are uterine fibroids treated?Doctor's answer:
Uterine fibroids are a relatively common benign tumor that may cause symptoms such as increased vaginal discharge, abdominal pain, excessive menstrual bleeding, and irregular menstruation. If fibroids are detected during a careful examination, timely medication treatment is necessary. Generally, under the guidance of a doctor, oral capsules or other medications can be used. After medication, regular follow-up examinations should be conducted. If the fibroids are larger than five centimeters, surgical treatment may be required.
