Patient's question:
I've been experiencing abdominal pain recently, and my menstrual flow has been particularly heavy. After a thorough examination at the hospital, I was diagnosed with uterine fibroids. The doctor said I need to undergo uterine compression treatment, but I don't want to learn about it. I'd like to ask if there are other methods available?Doctor's answer:
Uterine fibroids, also known as leiomyomas, are the most common benign tumor of the female reproductive system. They often cause no symptoms, but in rare cases, they may manifest as vaginal bleeding, palpable abdominal masses, or control symptoms. If a pedicle inversion or other conditions occur again, pain may be induced, with multiple uterine fibroids being more common. Hello, I don't know if your fibroid is multiple or solitary, nor do I know the size of the fibroid, except for the need for pregnancy. If there is excessive menstrual bleeding for a long time, it may lead to anemia. Uterine fibroids are hormone-dependent tumors, so drugs that antagonize hormones are used for treatment.
