Patient's question:
After the uterine fibroid surgery, I have stomach pain. What medicine should I take?Doctor's answer:
Hello, if a uterine fibroid is solitary and smaller than 5 cm with no discomfort symptoms, surgery may not be necessary. Medication can be tried, but drugs are often ineffective in completely removing the fibroid. If the fibroid is larger than 5 cm, multiple, or accompanied by significant symptoms, the best approach is surgery. Surgical options include laparoscopic and abdominal procedures, such as fibroid enucleation, total hysterectomy, and subtotal hysterectomy, which should be determined based on the size and location of the fibroid.
