Patient's question:
Stomachache, fever, dry heavingDoctor's answer:
Uterine fibroids causing abdominal pain is relatively rare. Apart from pain caused by compression of pelvic nerves, pedunculated submucosal fibroids can induce pain by causing contractions within the uterine cavity. When fibroids obstruct the cervical canal and hinder the flow of menstrual blood, it can lead to dysmenorrhea. When pedunculated subserosal fibroids undergo pedicle torsion, or when pregnancy-related uterine fibroids develop red degeneration or infection, severe abdominal pain may occur. It is recommended that you closely monitor your condition and seek medical attention promptly at the gynecology department if any significant abnormalities are observed.
