Does uterine fibroids cause menstruation to come early?

Patient's question:

My daughter had a thorough examination in the hospital a couple of days ago and was diagnosed with uterine fibroids. I want to understand if uterine fibroids can cause early menstruation. If it does, would medication be required?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, this can affect menstruation, potentially causing irregular periods or excessive menstrual bleeding. Therefore, it is important to pay attention to rest and actively monitor for a period of time. However, it is recommended to avoid excessive stress. When necessary, medication can also be used to regulate the menstrual cycle and treat conditions like uterine fibroids. If the condition significantly improves, minimally invasive surgery may also be considered. It is also beneficial to actively prevent intrauterine infections and anemia.
