How to treat uterine fibroids after pregnancy

Patient's question:

I have an itchy lower body, and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? If I get uterine fibroids after pregnancy, how should they be treated?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, if the uterine fibroid is small, it generally does not cause much impact. If it is larger, it can be treated with preservation of the pregnancy. If the preservation treatment fails, surgical treatment will be necessary. Pay attention to postoperative care. If the tumor is less than 5 cm, medication can be used to control the growth of the fibroid. If it exceeds 5 cm, the doctor will recommend surgical treatment. Generally, a single fibroid can be removed through surgery. If there are multiple fibroids and the patient has not yet entered menopause, the doctor may recommend hysterectomy to prevent the fibroid from growing again.
