Patient's question:
I was carefully diagnosed with uterine fibroids at the hospital. I was a bit worried during sexual intercourse, and I had contractions without pregnancy.Doctor's answer:
Hello, uterine fibroids are a benign disease. If uterine fibroids are quite large (>5cm), surgical treatment can be considered. If there are symptoms, such as reducing the endometrium leading to irregular or abnormal menstrual bleeding, surgery is also recommended. If they are small and asymptomatic, it is advisable to wait and see. Generally, uterine fibroids do not cause contractions, but they may lead to muscle contractions during sexual intercourse due to stimulation.
