Patient's question:
I got married last year. Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried about it affecting my fertility, and I'm also extremely sensitive to cold and coldness. How can I know if I have uterine fibroids?Doctor's answer:
According to your description, you can judge based on your own changes, such as vaginal foreign body secretion, or abdominal pain, etc. Additionally, it is best to undergo an ultrasound examination, which is currently the most commonly used auxiliary diagnostic method. It can show uterine enlargement, irregular shape, the number, location, size of fibroids, and whether the internal structure of the fibroids is uniform or liquefied, cystic, etc. Ultrasound examination is helpful for diagnosing uterine fibroids, providing reference for distinguishing whether the fibroids have degenerated, and also helps in differentiating between ovarian tumors or other pelvic masses.
