Patient's question:
I have my period once, and the flow is light, just a sanitary pad is enough each time. It hasn't come for nearly half a year. Is it menopause? Recently, I found that my uterine fibroid has expanded. I want to ask if the uterine fibroid will automatically shrink after menopause?Doctor's answer:
At the age of 47, menopause is a bit early. Medically speaking, after menopause, fibroids will gradually expand. It is recommended to have a thorough check-up at the hospital every 3 months. For fibroids of this size, they can be completely eliminated using black ointment and tumor-softening patches. There are several treatment methods for uterine fibroids, but since the symptoms of patients differ, the treatment methods adopted will also vary. Therefore, patients need to have timely and careful examination and diagnosis to receive symptomatic treatment.
