Patient's question:
Patient Gender: Doctor, hello:My mother is 49 years old this year. She went to the hospital for a check-up and was diagnosed with uterine fibroids, multiple ones, the largest being 2.92.2 cm. What treatment methods are good for this? What should she pay attention to in her diet? She doesn’t feel any pain now, but her menstrual flow is quite heavy, and the duration is the same as before. However, her periods have been coming earlier for the past two months—she had one on the 15th last month and another on the 20th this month. Please analyze this for me and explain more about this topic. I sincerely appreciate your help!

Doctor's answer:
Hello, uterine fibroids are a common gynecological disease. This is a type of benign tumor, and in the early stages, it generally has no obvious symptoms. If it is not treated in a timely manner, it may lead to symptoms such as vaginal bleeding, abdominal pain, secondary anemia, increased leukorrhea, and infertility. The factors that may cause it may be related to long-term estrogen stimulation. It needs to be treated in a timely manner. The treatment methods can include relevant medications. In terms of physical therapy, treatments such as ultrasound can be used. If the condition is severe, surgical treatment may be required.
