How to deal with excessive blood clots during menstruation caused by uterine fibroids

Patient's question:

Doctor, I would like to consult. I was diagnosed with uterine fibroids six months ago, and I often have stomach problems and get angry. It's about 3 centimeters in size. I've been taking Gongtuo Xiao. Now I've noticed that during my period, there's a lot of blood, and there are large clots of blood and tissue. The amount is particularly heavy. Hello doctor, what could be the reason for my condition? Is it serious? Could this break my hymen?

Doctor's answer:

Uterine fibroids are classified into intramural, subserosal, and submucosal fibroids. Generally, subserosal and intramural fibroids will never cause a decrease in menstrual flow. If the fibroid is located submucosally or intramurally projecting towards the mucosal layer, it may lead to a continuous increase in menstrual flow, resulting in blood loss anemia, but it will never rupture the hymen.
In addition, during the treatment of uterine fibroids, apart from immediate medical treatment, the patient's dietary condition and psychological state are also particularly important. The patient must maintain a light diet while always keeping a cheerful and optimistic mindset to avoid unnecessary impacts on the complete recovery of uterine fibroids.
