Patient's question:
Stomachache, fever, dry heavingDoctor's answer:
Uterine fibroids causing abdominal pain are relatively rare. Apart from pain caused by compression of pelvic nerves, pedunculated submucosal fibroids can induce pain by causing contractions within the uterine cavity. When fibroids obstruct the cervical canal and hinder the outflow of menstrual blood, they can lead to dysmenorrhea. When pedunculated subserosal fibroids undergo stalk torsion, or when pregnancy-related uterine fibroids develop red degeneration or infection, severe abdominal pain may occur. It is recommended that you closely monitor your condition and seek medical attention promptly at the gynecology department if any significant abnormalities are observed.
