Patient's question:
How to deal with a uterine fibroid measuring 4.23.7? My friend had severe lower abdominal pain two days ago and felt a hard lump when she touched it. After going to the hospital for a check-up, she was diagnosed with this condition. She is from the countryside and has little education, so she doesn't know how to treat it properly. That's why she asked me to inquire. How is this condition treated? I would like to consult.Doctor's answer:
Hello! Your friend has discovered uterine fibroids. The treatment for uterine fibroids varies from person to person. If her fibroids are located near the endometrium, they may significantly interfere with menstrual flow, meaning there is a noticeable increase in menstrual volume. In such cases, surgical treatment should be considered. If the fibroids are located near the serosal layer of the uterus and menstrual flow is not excessive, surgery can be postponed for the time being. Wishing the patient a speedy recovery!
