Patient's question:
Often feel lower back pain, a heavy and bloated sensation in the lower abdomen, a shorter menstrual cycle, and excessive bleeding. Sometimes it's accompanied by vaginal bleeding. Feeling upset, I went to the hospital for a check-up. The hospital's examination results showed uterine fibroids. I want to ask what medication should be taken to treat uterine fibroids?Doctor's answer:
Currently, there is no effective medication for treating uterine fibroids, and laparoscopic surgery is generally required. If uterine fibroids are located within the uterine cavity, they can alter the uterine environment, increasing the risks of ectopic pregnancy, placenta previa, and malpositioned. Additionally, hormonal changes after conception may lead to the growth or degeneration of uterine fibroids. Therefore, if uterine fibroids are detected before pregnancy, laparoscopic surgery is usually recommended.In addition to symptomatic treatment during the management of uterine fibroids, the patient's dietary condition and psychological state are also very important.
