Patient's question:
It has been two years. In the past year, it has grown to about 57mm47mm, with smaller ones about 28mm23mm. Do I have to have surgery? What will be the impact if I don't? How should I deal with multiple uterine fibroids?Doctor's answer:
If the condition is multiple and the patient has not yet entered menopause, it is recommended to remove the uterus to prevent the uterine fibroids from growing again. Generally speaking, within one month after surgery, it is advisable to rest more in bed to reduce the gravitational pull on the vaginal wound, allowing the wound to heal completely. After one month, some appropriate outdoor activities can be performed, but the duration should not be too long. The rest period after surgery is three months. During the first three months, sexual intercourse and tub baths must be strictly prohibited. Patients who have undergone a hysterectomy must strictly avoid carrying water, lifting heavy objects, or engaging in heavy labor such as mopping heavy floors or exercising within the first year. Generally, sexual life can be resumed three months after surgery. There are several treatment methods for uterine fibroids, but since the patient's condition varies, the diagnostic methods used will also differ. Therefore, patients need to undergo timely and thorough examination and diagnosis to receive symptomatic treatment.
