How do uterine fibroids occur?

Patient's question:

I am currently being examined by a doctor and was found to have uterine fibroids again. They are mainly multiple, and the largest one is as big as 10MM13MM10MM. There are already eight uterine fibroids. I feel a bit lost because it hurts a lot. How do uterine fibroids develop?

Doctor's answer:

Uterine fibroids are the most common benign tumors of the uterus, and their cause is unclear, possibly related to higher levels of estrogen in the body. They are more common in women aged 30-50. Based on their growth location, they can be classified into intramural, submucosal, and subserosal types. They are treatable. In addition to receiving standard treatment for uterine fibroids, patients also need to pay attention to their diet, such as eating properly and maintaining a positive mood. At the same time, patients should also pay attention to choosing a professional hospital for diagnosis to achieve good treatment results.
