Does uterine fibroids cause infertility symptoms?

Patient's question:

A 43-year-old woman from Qiqihar, Heilongjiang Province, has recently experienced lower abdominal pain. The pain worsens after urination, and sometimes her urine contains blood. When she touches her lower abdomen, there is a small lump, but it doesn't hurt when touched. During sexual intercourse, she feels pain in her vagina. After a thorough examination at the hospital, the doctor told her she has uterine fibroids.

Doctor's answer:

Like young married women, whether to have a hysterectomy or not is very important for their future personal lives, because 40% of women with uterine fibroids are infertile. Surgical treatment for uterine fibroids can cause damage to the uterus, which will naturally affect fertility and personal health. Therefore, deciding on the right treatment method is particularly important for women. Pay special attention to your diet. Women with uterine fibroids should avoid eating foods high in hormones in excess. Generally, women with uterine fibroids have higher hormone levels than the average person, so they often appear younger than women of the same age. This is the only advantage of this condition. Women with uterine fibroids should not eat spicy foods and drinks such as chili peppers, Sichuan peppercorns, raw scallions, raw garlic, and baijiu. Eat more lean meat and chicken.
