Patient's question:
I and my husband have always wanted a baby, but recently I found out that I have uterine fibroids. Doctor, can uterine fibroids be treated with an IUD?Doctor's answer:
Hello, uterine fibroids can occur in women whether or not they have been pregnant. After the development of uterine fibroids, in fact, it does not have a significant impact on pregnancy. Placing an intrauterine device (IUD) on uterine fibroids is ineffective, as the IUD can, to some extent, suppress menstruation, thereby preventing pregnancy. If you have uterine fibroids, regular follow-up checks are sufficient, and treatment may not always be necessary. It is recommended to pay more attention to your health in daily life.
