Patient's question:
My wife has been acting strangely lately. She always feels a bit of pain in her lower abdomen. I thought she might have eaten something bad, but her vagina also feels uncomfortable, as if something is growing inside. Recently, she has been complaining of lower back pain, fatigue, increased white discharge with a bad odor, and slight bleeding. What should I do about her uterine fibroids?Doctor's answer:
Generally, uterine fibroids less than 5 centimeters that do not recur with frequent menstrual periods and do not cause excessive bleeding are not treated with surgery. Oral Guizhi Fuling Pills can be used for treatment. After menopause, small uterine fibroids may shrink and disappear on their own. If the fibroids are larger than 5 centimeters and accompanied by symptoms, surgical treatment is necessary. There are many treatment methods, such as medication, acupuncture, and surgery. The best method should be chosen based on individual circumstances. It is recommended to visit a hospital to learn about alternative treatments.
