Should uterine fibroids be completely removed or just the tumors excised?

Patient's question:

No obvious symptoms before illness, August

Doctor's answer:

Hello, uterine fibroids are common benign tumors of the reproductive system. Small fibroids without symptoms can be followed up regularly. If there is heavy bleeding or the size exceeds 5 cm, surgical treatment can be considered. Maintain a positive mood and eat less spicy, irritating, and hair-inducing foods.
The occurrence of uterine fibroids not only affects women's health but also leads to gynecological diseases. Therefore, it is best to undergo a gynecological examination at the hospital to identify the cause and receive symptomatic treatment. It is also important to drink more water and pay attention to personal hygiene.
