What are the symptoms of benign uterine fibroids?

With the continuous development of society, many people suffer from uterine fibroids. In fact, this is also a common female disease. In fact, the onset of this disease may also affect the patient's fertility. Therefore, everyone should pay attention to it. What are the symptoms of benign uterine fibroids? Let's talk about it in detail:

What are the symptoms of benign uterine fibroids?

1. Menstrual disorders. Generally, ovarian or even bilateral uterine fibroids do not cause menstrual disorders because they do not destroy all normal ovarian tissues. Some uterine bleeding is not endocrine, but may be caused by ovarian tumors that change the pelvic blood vessels, causing endometrial congestion; or by ovarian malignant tumors that directly metastasize to the endometrium. Menstrual disorders caused by endocrine tumors are often combined with other secretory effects.

2. Lower abdominal discomfort is the initial symptom before the patient feels the lower abdominal mass. Due to the weight of the tumor itself and the influence of intestinal peristalsis and body position changes, the tumor moves in the pelvic cavity, involving its pedicle and pelvic funnel ligament, so that the patient has a feeling of distension and falling in the lower abdomen or iliac fossa.

3. Increased abdominal circumference and abdominal mass are the most common symptoms of uterine fibroids. Patients notice that their clothes or belts are too tight, and then they notice that their abdomen is enlarged, or they feel it by chance in the morning, so they press their abdomen and find a mass in the abdomen, plus abdominal distension and discomfort.

Abdominal pain: If the tumor has no complications, there is little pain. Patients with ovarian tumors feel abdominal pain, especially when it occurs suddenly, which is mostly caused by the twisting of the tumor pedicle, or occasionally by tumor rupture, bleeding or infection. Malignant cysts often cause abdominal pain and leg pain, and the pain often causes patients to seek emergency treatment.
