How do you know when you got uterine fibroids?

Patient's question:

Here is the English translation of the provided text, with the line breaks preserved as instructed:
"At the anterior wall of the uterus, a 10×8 mm hypoechogenic area with smooth margins was observed. I would like to know the size of the uterine fibroid. Can its size predict approximately when it was acquired? I had a natural miscarriage on February 12th (I had undergone cupping on my waist the day before, about five or six sessions). The gynecological ultrasound was performed during the miscarriage! However, the doctor only mentioned 'uterine fibroid' once and didn’t discuss it further! The title above is from a re-examination report from another hospital!"
Let me know if you'd like any refinements!

Doctor's answer:

This consideration is about uterine fibroids, which are not very large, with a diameter of about 1 centimeter, roughly the size of a peanut. For the patient, if the uterine fibroid condition is severe, immediate symptomatic treatment should be administered, and appropriate medication should be used. Otherwise, it may lead to the recurrence of uterine fibroids. In addition, the patient needs to pay attention to their diet and psychological care. This condition is often related to viral infections, and there is no special treatment—symptomatic management is sufficient. Many medications can be chosen for this purpose.
