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. What are the symptoms of uterine fibroids?Doctor's answer:
Increased menstrual volume and prolonged menstrual period: More common in large intramural myomas and submucosal myomas.Lower abdominal mass: When the myoma is small, a mass cannot be felt in the abdomen.
Increased leukorrhea: Intramural myomas enlarge the uterine cavity area, increase endometrial secretion, and are accompanied by pelvic congestion, leading to increased leukorrhea; once a submucosal myoma becomes infected, it may cause a large amount of purulent leukorrhea.
In traditional Chinese medicine, uterine myomas are considered to be caused by the mutual stagnation of phlegm and blood obstructing the (uterus). Treatment options include Guizhi Fuling pill or Xiaojin pill, or surgical treatment, which is the most definitive.
