Patient's question:
Uterine septal fibroid, which has grown from 1.5cm to 5.4cm over approximately 6 years, without any obvious symptoms. It was discovered when a lump was felt in the abdomen, leading to an ultrasound examination. What treatment options are available for my current condition?Doctor's answer:
Generally, uterine fibroids smaller than 5 centimeters that do not cause frequent menstruation or excessive menstrual flow do not require surgery. Guaizhi-Fuling Pill can be taken orally for treatment. After menopause, small uterine fibroids may shrink and disappear on their own. If the fibroids are larger than 5 centimeters and accompanied by symptoms, surgical treatment is necessary.The presence of uterine fibroids not only affects women's health but also leads to gynecological diseases. Therefore, it is best to undergo a vaginal examination at the gynecology department of a hospital to identify the cause and receive targeted treatment. Additionally, pay attention to personal hygiene and keep the perineal skin clean.
