Patient's question:
My wife currently has uterine fibroids. What I want to know is, can she have sexual intercourse with uterine fibroids?Doctor's answer:
Patients with uterine fibroids can engage in sexual activity. However, uterine fibroids are a common benign tumor in the female reproductive system, composed of fibrotic smooth muscle tissue, and are associated with long-term estrogen stimulation. Estrogen causes the fibroids to enlarge, the muscle layer to thicken, and the uterus to grow. For women with sexual dysfunction, it may help alleviate hormonal discharge disorders, and to a certain extent, have a negative impact on the reduction of fibroids.
