Patient's question:
Stomach pain was so severe that I couldn't bear it, so I went to the hospital for a thorough examination. The doctor told me it was a uterine fibroid, which might require the removal of the uterus. I was very upset because I hadn't been pregnant yet and hadn't given birth. But later, the doctor said, "Are uterine fibroids benign, and do they still need to be removed?"Doctor's answer:
Uterine fibroids are benign tumors in gynecology, so even if you have uterine fibroids, you don't need a total hysterectomy. Moreover, if the fibroids don't cause any symptoms, don't affect your menstrual cycle, and don't lead to excessive menstrual bleeding, and if the fibroids are smaller than 5 centimeters, surgery is not necessary. You can take some blood-activating medications to make the fibroids grow. If the fibroids are larger than 5 centimeters and affect your menstrual cycle, then you can have a uterine fibroid removal procedure, rather than a total hysterectomy.
