Patient's question:
Married. A small fibroid was found on the posterior wall of the uterus. I'm under a lot of psychological stress. After reading many patients' comments, they said it could interfere with future fertility, which makes me very scared. I want to ask if uterine fibroids are treated with surgery?Doctor's answer:
Uterine fibroids are a common benign tumor in Chinese women. Generally, the treatment is surgical, but not all patients need surgery. It depends on the size of your fibroid, its rate of shrinkage, and whether it can cause abnormal menstruation. At your age, since you haven't been pregnant, it is generally recommended to remove the uterus if the fibroid is larger than 5 cm or if it is prone to causing menstrual abnormalities. It is recommended to go to the hospital for thorough examination and treatment. This is usually ineffective with medication, and if possible, it is generally advised to remove it. At your age, it is important to prevent the disease from occurring and to avoid adverse inflammation.
