Patient's question:
During the recent health check-up at my workplace, I was found to have uterine fibroids. I want to go to the hospital for a second look. Can a transvaginal ultrasound detect uterine fibroids?Doctor's answer:
An ultrasound can detect uterine fibroids. Compared to abdominal ultrasound, vaginal ultrasound is more precise in determining the size, location, and specific lesion conditions of uterine fibroids. It is recommended to undergo a thorough vaginal ultrasound examination promptly. Based on the examination results, targeted treatment should be administered. If the condition meets surgical indications, surgery must be performed in a timely manner to prevent dangerous complications. Regular check-ups should be conducted, and treatment effects should be closely monitored.
