Patient's question:
Main symptoms: Uterine fibroids onset time: 5 years Examination results: Yesterday, I went to the hospital for an ultrasound and was diagnosed as follows; Anterior uterine position, size 112.11.75mm, irregular shape, multiple echogenic nodules visible within the, one of which is approximately 53..40mm in size, with clear margins and uniform internal echoes. A gestational sac measuring 51..17MM was observed within the uterus, but no visible fetal tissue or fetal heart activity was detected. A high-echoic intrauterine IUD was also observed. The bilateral adnexa were not clearly displayed. Medical diagnosis: Multiple uterine fibroids. IUD descent. Intrauterine pregnancy. Medical advice: A hysterectomy is required to cure this condition. I would like to ask everyone,Doctor's answer:
The uterus is a female characteristic and an important organ in the female reproductive system. The uterus is a necessary organ that maintains menstruation and female fertility under the regulation of various hormones in the female body. At the same time, the uterus is also a complex endocrine organ that secretes various bioactive substances, participating in the regulation of local and systemic physiological and pathological processes. Hysterectomy can have certain impacts on the patient's physiology, psychology, and daily life.1. It disrupts the endocrine dynamic balance, which can lead to the decline of ovarian function, causing a sudden drop in estrogen levels in women. Without a gradual adaptation process, menopausal symptoms become more pronounced.
2. It may result in varying degrees of sexual dysfunction,：lack of libido, reduced frequency of sexual activity, and difficulty achieving orgasm. After hysterectomy, the healing of the vaginal stump often leads to inflammatory granulation, causing postcoital bleeding and dyspareunia. Vaginal shortening and decreased estrogen levels after hysterectomy can also cause dyspareunia. Hysterectomy disrupts the uterus and vaginal nerve plexus, leading to reduced sexual response and difficulty achieving a new. Psychological factors also affect women's quality of life.
3. Some women may experience improved sexual function after hysterectomy. This is because the surgical removal of the lesion has significantly improved the condition, correcting previous influencing factors.
4. After hysterectomy, the empty pelvic cavity can lead to rectal displacement, excessive pelvic floor descent, and impaired autonomic nerve function of the anus, which are important reasons for female bowel dysfunction. This manifests as reduced bowel movements, difficulty defecating, severe constipation, and some patients even requiring laxatives.
5. After hysterectomy, the normal physiological structure is altered, which may result in varying degrees of vaginal prolapse.
6. Some reports suggest that a decrease in estrogen levels after hysterectomy can lead to a significant increase in blood sugar in some patients. After estrogen replacement therapy, blood sugar levels decrease as estrogen levels rise, but the exact mechanism is unclear.
Patients with uterine tumors should supplement their diet with high-protein foods such as milk, soy products, lean meat, pig trotters, sea cucumber, fish, animal liver, jujubes, peanuts, walnuts, black fungus, carrots, and red beans. Foods like river crabs, black fish, beef, and animal gelatin (such as donkey-hide glue and pork skin glue) can also help boost white blood cell counts.
In addition to dietary measures, taking herbal supplements specifically designed to address postoperative adverse reactions, such as ginsenoside Rh2 (Humenwei), can yield surprising effects. Ginsenoside Rh2 (Humenwei) can enhance the immune system and improve the patient's overall condition. A content of 16.2% is most suitable for human absorption.
