Patient's question:
This phenomenon has lasted for half a month. I frequently experience recurring back and waist pain, and feel very tired every day. My menstrual cycle used to be very regular, but for the past 2-3 months, it has become irregular. Some people say that at this age, it's common to develop uterine fibroids. I'm very worried about getting this disease. What should I do if uterine fibroids cause irregular menstruation?Doctor's answer:
Uterine fibroids, also known as leiomyomas, are the most common benign tumors of the female reproductive system. Generally, remedies like Guizhi Fuling capsules, Gongtuo Xiao, and Baixiao Dan are tried for treatment. A 5CM-sized fibroid is considered a surgical indication. However, if pregnancy is desired, a 3CM-sized fibroid may also be considered a surgical indication. Follow clinical diagnosis and medical advice. For severe cases of uterine fibroids, it is recommended to seek immediate medical attention and treat according to the doctor's advice. Do not arbitrarily switch medications, as this may have the opposite effect on the treatment.
