What are the precautions for uterine fibroid surgery?

Patient's question:

Because my husband divorced me two years ago, and the child is with me. However, the expenses for the child are quite high. I have spent almost all my savings over these two years. But when it rains, it pours— I was diagnosed with an uterine fibroid. Should I have surgery?

Doctor's answer:

Uterine fibroids are benign tumors dependent on estrogen. I'm not sure about the specific size and location of your fibroids? If surgical treatment is needed, it is recommended to be performed 3-5 days after the menstrual period is clean, without specific month suggestions. If you have significant psychological stress or obvious discomfort symptoms, consider early treatment. Treatment methods include: open abdominal fibroid enucleation, laparoscopy, hysteroscopy, uterine artery embolization, and magnetic resonance ablation, etc. It has been proven that uterine fibroids can be treated. After being diagnosed with uterine fibroids, it is crucial not to panic and seek unprofessional help.
