Patient's question:
I have always had uterine fibroids. I originally planned to treat them before getting pregnant, but now I unexpectedly got pregnant. I truly can't bear to have an abortion. The doctors at Chuansha Tianshi (http://www.chuansha120.com/) suggested that I should not have the child for now. I am very torn and confused. Please, doctors, can I keep this child?Doctor's answer:
The occurrence of uterine fibroids is related to hormonal imbalance. Generally, fibroids smaller than 5 centimeters that do not cause frequent menstruation or excessive menstrual flow do not require surgery and can be treated with medication to control their growth. Fibroids larger than 5 centimeters are usually recommended for surgical treatment. A single fibroid can often be removed through surgery, but for multiple fibroids in patients who have not yet entered menopause, it is recommended to remove the uterus to prevent the fibroids from growing back.
