Patient's question:
My situation is as follows. It started a while ago, and I've been having blood flow from my vagina without realizing it, but the amount isn't large—just a little. Also, my menstrual cramps have become more severe than before. During my periods, the pain is so intense that I can't train or rest. So, the day before yesterday, I went to the hospital for a thorough examination. The gynecologist told me that I have uterine fibroids, and the tumor is quite large, so it's best to have surgery to treat it. I've heard that uterine fibroids are usually benign and don't need treatment, but I'm still a bit worried, so I decided to seek some advice.Doctor's answer:
Uterine fibroids are the most common benign tumor of the female reproductive system. However, based on the situation you described, if the tumor is large, it is best to undergo treatment, because benign tumors can potentially transform into malignant ones if left untreated, which would increase the difficulty of treatment. Therefore, it is recommended to seek treatment under the guidance of a doctor in a regular hospital.When patients face the problem of uterine fibroids, we should actively implement thorough examinations and treatment, without avoiding medical consultation. If the uterine fibroids do not improve with treatment, it is important to promptly adjust the treatment plan.
