Patient's question:
Every morning when I wake up, I have abdominal pain and lower back pain, and I feel weak. It started on June 16th, and I went to Xiaolan Hospital in Zhongshan, Guangdong, on July 23rd.Doctor's answer:
Uterine fibroids smaller than 5 cm can be treated with medication to control their growth. For those larger than 5 cm, surgical treatment is recommended. Generally, a single fibroid can be removed through surgery. If a patient has multiple fibroids and has not yet entered menopause, it is advised to have the uterus removed to prevent further growth. Patients with high estrogen levels should avoid foods such as honey, propolis, tofu, jujubes, and eel glue.
