Patient's question:
On February 6, 2013, an ultrasound revealed a cyst the size of a chicken egg.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. 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.
