Patient's question:
In the recent few months, my menstrual cycle has been irregular. Sometimes it comes every 20 days, and sometimes it takes 40 days. The amount of blood flow is always quite heavy, and it lasts for 6 to 7 days. There is also a lot of pale yellow liquid discharged from the vagina, with a slightly unpleasant odor. When I went to the hospital for an X-ray, they said I had uterine fibroids.Doctor's answer:
Principles of Uterine Fibroid Treatment:Follow-up and careful observation are suitable for cases where the fibroids are not large and the menstrual flow does not increase significantly.
Hormone therapy is suitable for near-menopausal patients with fibroids that are not large and whose menstrual flow does not increase significantly.
Surgical treatment is the primary method for treating this condition and is suitable for cases with a larger uterus and excessive menstrual bleeding. Preoperative treatment may be necessary, such as blood transfusion or human albumin administration if secondary anemia or excessive bleeding occurs during surgery.
Uterine fibroids are a condition that is difficult to cure. Patients should maintain a positive attitude and face it with optimism. Only by doing so can they boost their confidence in combating uterine fibroids and believe that recovery is certain.
