Patient's question:
I recently feel unwell and have been experiencing lower abdominal pain. After a thorough examination at the hospital, it was found to be uterine fibroids. I would like to understand what types of classification uterine fibroids have?Doctor's answer:
Hello! Uterine fibroids are a type of benign tumor in the female reproductive organs and are a common gynecological condition. Most people do not have any symptoms and are only discovered during health check-ups. Depending on the growth location, uterine fibroids are divided into subserosal, intramural, and submucosal uterine fibroids. Some people may experience symptoms such as lower abdominal heaviness, frequent urination, difficulty defecating, and abnormal menstruation due to the size and growth location of the fibroids.
