Patient's question:
Hello doctor, I am currently 35 years old and female. I went to the hospital for a health check-up recently, and the detailed examination revealed that I have uterine fibroids. Now I am in a state of great fear because I don't know what to do. What should patients with uterine fibroids do?Doctor's answer:
According to the situation you described, uterine fibroids are benign tumors of the uterus in women, and this condition is very common, so there is no need to worry too much. Uterine fibroids are divided into subserous fibroids, intramural fibroids, and submucosal fibroids. The first two types of fibroids do not require treatment and only need follow-up examinations. Submucosal fibroids can affect menstruation. If the menstrual flow is particularly heavy and affects your health, surgery may be needed to remove them.
