Patient's question:
I have had irregular periods recently, with a very heavy flow and a long duration. I also frequently experience lower abdominal pain. After a thorough examination at the hospital, I was diagnosed with uterine fibroids and underwent a fibroid removal surgery. I have now been discharged and returned home. What should I pay attention to after uterine fibroid surgery?Doctor's answer:
Menstrual volume is excessive, the period is long, and abdominal pain are all related to your uterine fibroids. If you have already undergone fibroid surgery, pay attention to the surgical method: whether it was a hysterectomy or a fibroid removal surgery. If it was a removal surgery, there won't be too much impact. If it was a hysterectomy, pay attention to regular follow-up checks and carefully observe if there is any peeling. After surgery, it is strictly prohibited to have sexual intercourse for about three months. It is still necessary to carefully observe the discharge.
