Patient's question:
I have this uterine fibroid. It grew this year, and it was not discovered during my health check-up last year. Now the tumor is not very large, but I am treating it with traditional Chinese medicine. There is no need to rush for surgery. The current issue is to pay more attention to rest and take good care of my diet.Doctor's answer:
Uterine fibroids, also known as leiomyomas, are the most common benign tumors of the female reproductive organs. They are typically classified into subserosal fibroids, intramural fibroids, submucosal fibroids, cervical fibroids, or broad ligament fibroids, among others. Different types of uterine fibroids can manifest clinical symptoms such as excessive menstrual bleeding, lower abdominal masses, or difficulties with urination and defecation.Surgical treatment: This is the primary method of treatment for the condition.
Preoperative treatment: Suitable for cases where the uterus is large and menstrual bleeding is heavy.
In addition to medication, during the treatment of uterine fibroids, the patient's dietary condition and psychological state are also particularly important. It is essential for patients to maintain a positive mood and follow a proper diet.
