Patient's question:
My friend is 34 years old and has had uterine fibroids for several years, but they are not too serious. She is currently single and not sexually active. I am wondering if this situation will have any adverse effects on her condition in the long run, and how significant those effects might be?Doctor's answer:
Uterine fibroids are primarily related to emotions and disharmonious sexual life. Therefore, your situation with less sexual activity is also an influencing factor. Normal sexual life between couples can stimulate the body's hormone secretion, promoting the normal functioning of the neuroendocrine system. Proper and harmonious sexual life helps improve the human body's immune ability and prevent the occurrence of diseases. Disharmonious sexual life may cause hormonal imbalances in women's bodies.
