Doctor's answer:

If you have uterine fibroids, this can lead to heavy menstrual bleeding and prolonged bleeding. If your menstrual cycle is affected, it may be necessary to have them removed. If the fibroids are large, it may be difficult to remove them, or if they are removed and the body does not fully recover, then the option of removing the uterus should still be considered. It is important to develop good living habits and maintain a positive mood. Wishing you a speedy recovery!
