Patient's question:
What serious interference does uterine fibroids have on the body?Doctor's answer:
The causes of uterine fibroids may be due to endocrine disorders caused by hormonal level imbalances. They are common benign tumors in women of childbearing age, with most people experiencing no symptoms or only slight changes in menstruation. Fibroids are often discovered during health check-ups or ultrasound examinations. The severe symptoms caused by fibroids include menstrual irregularities, such as shortened periods and increased bleeding volume, which can lead to severe anemia. Larger fibroids can press on the bladder and rectum, causing abnormal urination and defecation.
