Patient's question:
Hello doctor, I am 44 years old. Every time I have my period, the flow is quite heavy, and the duration is long. I always feel lower back pain. Even standing for a short while makes me feel tired. The hospital examination said I have uterine fibroids, but I don't want to undergo surgery. I would like to know what foods are best for uterine fibroids. I hope the expert can help me. Thank you.Doctor's answer:
Hello, uterine fibroids are common benign gynecological tumors. In general, fibroids less than 5 centimeters in size can be treated conservatively, as they may shrink on their own when estrogen levels in the body decline. Fibroids larger than 5 centimeters require surgical removal. For small fibroids, it is important to undergo regular check-ups, and treatment methods such as ultrasonic, hysteroscopy, or surgery can be chosen based on symptoms and fertility needs.
