Uterine fibroids: Determine if surgery is needed

Patient's question:

Uterine fibroids have been present for 3 years, no symptoms, over 5.0 in size, and are close to the cervix. Age is 45. Whether to have surgery for uterine fibroids?

Doctor's answer:

Uterine fibroids are a common benign tumor in women. If uterine fibroids rapidly decrease in size and there is suspicion of malignancy, surgery should be performed in a timely manner. Surgery is necessary when there is excessive menstrual bleeding, anemia, or when it harms health. Uterine fibroids do not pose a significant threat to human life safety, so 2/3 of patients do not need urgent surgery for treatment. In addition to symptomatic treatment for uterine fibroids, patients also need to pay attention to their diet, such as eating a light diet and staying active outdoors. At the same time, patients should also pay attention to choosing a reputable hospital for diagnosis, so that they can obtain good treatment results.
