Patient's question:
I have uterine fibroids, 3.83.3 cm in size. My menstrual cycle is normal, but the amount of bleeding is a bit heavy, and I don't feel any abnormal symptoms. I am 43 years old this year. I would like to ask what the best treatment for uterine fibroids is?Doctor's answer:
The treatment of uterine fibroids depends on the size, number, location of the fibroids, as well as the presence of related clinical symptoms, and may involve conservative treatment (medication, MRI-guided focused ultrasound therapy) or surgical treatment. Surgical treatment is further divided into hysteroscopic surgery, laparoscopic surgery, and open surgery. Hysteroscopic surgery can be used for submucosal uterine fibroids accompanied by abnormal uterine bleeding. For multiple uterine fibroids with a diameter greater than 5 cm, surgical resection can be performed. For women near menopause without symptoms, small uterine fibroids can be regularly reviewed without special treatment.
