Patient's question:
Please ask if I currently have a fibroid that is 2 millimeters in size. Can it be cured with Chinese medicine? Is it better to treat this condition when it is smaller? If the symptoms are currently mild, what methods can be used to cure it? Is laparoscopic surgery suitable?Doctor's answer:
The etiology of adenomyosis remains unclear. The current consensus is that because the uterus lacks a submucosal layer, the basal layer cells of the endometrium proliferate and invade into the uterine muscle layer, accompanied by compensatory hypertrophy and hyperplasia of surrounding muscle cells, forming the disease. There are multiple treatment options for adenomyosis, and clinical decisions should be personalized based on the patient's age, symptoms, and fertility requirements. Surgical and pharmacological treatment plans can be chosen simultaneously. It should be noted that adenomyosis is difficult to cure, and the probability of recurrence is relatively high. There are many treatment methods, and they should be chosen based on the actual situation and following the doctor's advice for active treatment.
